“Touch a Truck” presented by the Women’s Board of Kohl Children’s Museum

The Women’s
Board of Kohl Children’s Museum will present its ninth annual “Touch a Truck” event on Sunday, May 4,
2014 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. This family favorite allows car-crazed kids to
leave their toy trucks at home and jump safely into the front seat of the real
deal. “Touch a Truck” is an exciting opportunity for children to climb aboard
full-sized versions of their favorite toys in a completely safe environment.
The event will take place at Fields Chrysler Jeep Dodge, 670 W. Frontage Road,
Northfield, Ill.

At this
year’s “Touch a Truck,” kids are invited to explore more than 25 full-sized
vehicles such as fire engines, dump trucks, semis and tractors. The festivities
will also include food, sweet treats, music, face painting and rides on the
Great Chicago Kiddie Express, a child-sized train. All proceeds will benefit
Kohl Children’s Museum. The event is presented by the Women’s Board of the Kohl
Children’s Museum and chaired by Carrie Diamond of Wilmette and Amanda Sundt of
Winnetka. Proud sponsors of “Touch a Truck” include Aon Foundation, Fat Cow, Duxler
Complete Auto Care and United Scrap Metal.
