Touch A Truck | Downtown Shippensburg

Get ready—Touch-a-Truck is rolling back into Downtown Shippensburg on Saturday, May 31, for a day full of vehicles, fun, and family-friendly activities!

This free, walkable event runs from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM and features two event lots packed with trucks, equipment, and hands-on exploration:

  • Borough Lot beside the Police Station

  • Firefighters Activity Center Lot

New this year is a Sensory Friendly Hour from 10–11 AM, designed for families who prefer a calmer environment. During this first hour, lights and sirens will be turned off and the pace will be a little quieter, while still offering plenty to explore.

Your first stop should be the Shippensburg Area Chamber of Commerce (68 W. King Street). There you can:

  • Pick up your event map

  • Enter to win one of four BIG door prizes, including two bikes, a toddler bike, and a battery-powered Bluey vehicle (courtesy of Volvo Construction Equipment)

  • Grab free giveaways while supplies last:

    • Drawstring bags from Creative Engraving & Apparel

    • Coloring books and crayons from WellSpan Health

    • Bottled water from Negley’s Water and Well Drilling

  • Purchase a limited-edition 2025 Touch-a-Truck t-shirt for just $15, printed by Creative Engraving

Sweet treats and refreshments will be available on-site from Kona Ice, The Igloo, and Sunshine Drink Co.

And don’t miss the Coy Public Library’s Annual Duck Derby at 1:30 PM—a fun tradition for kids and families alike!

Whether you’re coming to climb in a fire truck, enjoy a snow cone, or spend time downtown with the family, Touch-a-Truck is the place to be this Saturday in Shippensburg!
