The Junior League of Greensboro sponsored "Touch a Truck" in the Fresh Market side of the parking lot in Jefferson Village. Partly due to the nice weather and partly due to the nature of the event, it drew record crowds. People were lined up half way across the parking lot to get in to this interactive, hands-on event. The Junior League, an educational and charitable organization for women, organized and staffed this fine event, attending to all details. The five dollar admission fee will be used to as not only a fundraiser for the organization, but also to be used to support their partnership with Cone Elementary School.
Nine local companies helped sponsor the event and the community service vehicles donated their time. Truly, the community came together for the good of children. The children not only had fun, they learned everything from how to work the bells and whistles to the purpose of each truck on the lot. A big thank you to the Junior League for a job well done. See more photos below. This was a big weekend for fall festivals, church homecomings, and other events in the Triad. Greensboro's residents area great about volunteering and the Touch a Truck event was no exception. Thank you to all who were involved. You help make Greensboro such a great place to live!
That certainly sounds different!
