[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 86235, member: 1233"] I have had good success with a Truck Touch as part of a carnival, or a stand alone event. You get a bunch of trucks (cement mixer, fire truck, ambulance, bulldozer, etc...) and have them in a parking lot where the kids can climb in them and explore them. We charged $2 for an unlimited access to the area. (other groups I know of have charged for a specific amount of time, but that seems like a lot of work to operate.) Police and Fire Depts were on hand to show their vehicles, and the operators of other vehicles were there also. Many ofhte companies with the big trucks have stickers, etc.. for free that they will bring. Be sure to say that a parent needs to be with them, otherwise it can be chaotic. This would be a nice thing to have along with a carnival helped by the PTA. It is the kind of thing an 11yo might like to do. John Deere and Ditch Witch have promotional materials, coloring books, etc and might send them along with tractors or whatever. Ask the local dealers, or PM me and I will get a ocntact for Ditch Witch. (They are located near us). Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
