Families in Harrison, Arkansas, had the chance to explore a variety of specialized vehicles at the annual TOUCH-A-TRUCK event recently.
The Boone County Senior Activity & Wellness Center in Harrison hosted the hands-on event, which featured construction equipment, emergency vehicles, tow trucks and utility vehicles. Kids got to see big equipment up close, and they especially enjoyed getting to blow the dump truck horn!
Donations collected at the May 6 event will be used to help fund programs for seniors in Boone County.
A big thank you to the Black Hills Energy employees who volunteered their time to help with this project: James Dotson, Bryan Snavely and Matt Owens.
We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube, and Pinterest for more!
