The first hour is horn-free for sensitive ears.

Touch-A-Truck is generously sponsored by Phipps Insurance Agency who has been the lead sponsor of this fun filled, community event for years.

Bring a blanket or chair and feast on lunch and dessert from a variety of Food Trucks including: Cousin’s Lobster Truck, Red Barn Cookies, Uncle Joey’s Cannoli, Minuteman Kettle Corn, Trolley Dogs, Uncle E’s BBQ, VeeBop’s Ice Cream, Kona Ice, Kith & Kin, and Yummy Mummy.
