Touch a Truck
Airline Highway Park and Fairgrounds 17200 Airline Highway, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70821
For their annual Touch a Truck fundraiser, the Junior League of Baton Rouge is tapping into the simply strange curiosity of childhood and situating it right in the company of *big stuff*. Due to COVID-19 safety measures in place, the event has been shifted into a drive-thru experience, featuring displays of brightly colored, oh-so-tempting and oft-forbidden tractors, backhoes, emergency responders, tractor-trailers, utility trucks, and more.
Held at the BREC's Fairgrounds at Airline Highway Park. 11am–3 pm; Inner Wheel of Baton Rouge Quiet Hours will last from 9 am–11 am for children sensitive to noise. $30 tickets (per vehicle) can be purchased online at juniorleaguebr.org and include a scavenger hunt, swag bags, snack packs, and more. Attendees are also encouraged to bring diapers to support the Junior League's Diaper Bank and be entered in for a chance to win an ice cream cart.
