The JLP Gears Up For Its Eighth Annual Touch-a-Truck!

Touch-A-Truck is May 16th, 2015 from 10am-2pm in the Strip District at 11th & Smallman Streets.

April 26, 2015

The Junior League of Pittsburgh will host its eight annual Touch-a-Truck fundraiser on May 16th, 2015 from 10am-2pm at 11th and Smallman St. lot in the Strip District.

Join us rain or shine for the event where big trucks and kids become friends. Tickets for all attendees 12 months and older can be purchased in advance online for $4 or at the event for $5.

Let your kids get behind the wheel, honk the horns, and meet the men and women who drive the trucks. Past event vehicles have included fire trucks, ambulances, police cars, backhoe loaders, and excavators among many others. And let’s not forget the food trucks! 

We don’t care how you get there just as long as you are there. So snag a bus or hop in your monster truck and join us for what is gearing up to be the best Touch-a-Truck event yet. We won’t even charge you for parking!

Fundraisers like Touch-a-Truck enable the Junior League of Pittsburgh to create and support programs to improve the lives of women and children in Pittsburgh since 1922. Proceeds generated will go toward supporting the mission and values of the JLP, as well as initiatives like its Signature Project with iQ Kids Radio, Kids in the Kitchen, scholarships, and other children’s charities.
