Touch a Truck 2025

Celebrating its 12th year, Touch A Truck® Jackson is a family-friendly, hands-on event that offers opportunities for children to EXPLORE, CLIMB, and TOUCH trucks, emergency response vehicles, heavy machinery, and other equipment. Children also get to meet the personnel who protect, serve, and build our community. Learning comes alive when children connect these gigantic vehicles to our Mississippi economy and to potential careers in industries like farming, manufacturing, and construction.
