Touch-A-Truck

The Autism Society of Alabama and event organizer Paul DeMarco hosted their third annual Touch-A-Truck, a two-hour event for children to explore and have a better understanding of emergency vehicles, construction equipment and a variety of other trucks, including Sherman Industries' autism-themed cement truck in a fun and inviting atmosphere.   Children learned about the vehicles and were invited to sit in the trucks and even honk the horn! Monster and tow trucks, police cars, a fire truck, a dune buggy, a ladder truck and even a tractor were among many vehicles at the event. UAB Alpha Xi Delta Sorority provided face painting, arts and crafts and games.
