Frankford, NJ - The Sussex County Main Library in Franford will host a Touch-A-Truck event on Saturday, November 13, at 11 a.m. Families are invited to get up close and personal with a wide variety of emergency vehicles, buses and trucks. Each vehicle accompanied by an official operator to aid in vehicle tours and answer questions.

“Our side parking lot will be filled with all types of large vehicles you see on the road all the time, and some you may never have seen before!” exclaimed Youth Services Coordinator Leigh Wilkinson. “This is our 11th, almost-annual Touch-A-Truck and the very first one we’ve been able to host on a Saturday. It’s a great opportunity to bring the whole family to the library, look at some really cool trucks, and then come in to check out some really cool books and videos on trucks and trains too.”

Rain or shine, Touch-A-Truck is happening in the side parking lot at Main Library, 125 Morris Turnpike in Frankford. Festivities officially begin at 11:00, but the library is open from 9:00-5:00 and attendees are encouraged to come in, browse, and get their library cards if they are not cardholders already.
