Come out and see trucks as tall as giraffes, as fast as cheetahs, and as strong as elephants during Touch A Truck at Knoxville Zoo on Saturday, August 29, from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. Visitors can get up close to some impressively big machinery and have the chance to meet their favorite builder named Bob, too! Bob will be on hand to greet visitors and will be available for photos during the event. Impressively big trucks will be on display throughout the zoo, including a fire engine from the Knoxville Fire Department, Emergency Response vehicles from Knoxville Police Department, Rural Metro and The American Red Cross, Knoxville Recycling Coalition’s very popular Purple Paper Eater, a military vehicle from the Tennessee National Guard, and heavy equipment made to move mountains of dirt from Landmark International Trucks and Stowers Machinery.
Personnel from the Knoxville Fire Department, Knoxville Police Department, Rural Metro, Tennessee National Guard, Knoxville Recycling Coalition and The American Red Cross will also be on site for the event to answer questions and give visitors a close-up look at their trucks.
