Family Fun Day ‘touch a truck’ events rescheduled for August

The popular kids event was scheduled for May but cancelled due to rain.

Good news for kids who love to climb through and explore trucks. The City of Mississauga’s annual Family Fun Day is back on, rescheduled for August 8.

The free event — which features the popular ‘ touch a truck ’ activities — was supposed to happen in May but was cancelled due to rain.

Families will get to explore all sorts of municipal trucks and vehicles. These include a snowplow, MiWay bus, and front-end loader. New this year is the inclusion of a windrow-clearing machine, which is a new service provided by the City.

The event also includes interactive exhibits, educational activities and a bouncy castle.

It will be held near City Hall, on Princess Royal Drive, outside the Living Arts Centre.

The event happens on Saturday, August 8, from 10am-4pm.

Family Fun Day is usually held in May to coincide with National Public Works Week, which recognizes public works staff from across the country.
