Franklin County Touch-a-Truck 2026

Get ready for a day of climbing, exploring, honking horns, and getting up close with some of the coolest vehicles around.
Join us for the annual Franklin County Touch-a-Truck, where kids (and kids at heart!) can check out a variety of trucks, emergency vehicles, heavy equipment, farm equipment, work vehicles, and more. Meet the people who operate them, learn how they work, and get up close to the machines that make the work happen!
Admission is $5 for adults, paid at the entrance on the day of the event. Kids are FREE with the donation of a personal care item for the Ferrum Care Closet (toothpaste, deodorant, shampoo, feminine hygiene products, and other essentials are especially appreciated!) Child admission is $2 without a donation.
**SPECIAL QUIET HOUR**
10AM - 11AM - quiet time (no honks, music, or loud sounds) for kids with sensory sensitivities!
Kid-friendly lunch options will be available for purchase as a fundraiser for the Ferrum Park project. Every ticket and food purchase helps support even more great events like these at the park!
*This is a rain or shine event*

We're still adding to this year's lineup! If you've got any kind of vehicle or equipment that would make a kid stop and say "Whoa!", we'd love to have you join us. We're also looking for event sponsors to help support a great community event and a great little community park! If you're interested in bringing a vehicle or becoming a sponsor, please contact Christina Inman at christina@yourferrumpark.com
Come explore, learn, play, and support your community park. We can't wait for you to see what rolls into Ferrum Park this year!
