Is your kid fascinated by trucks? Does he or she love seeing big machinery up close? Does the photo (left) of a Washington Gas truck provoke feelings of awe and wonder?
If so, indulge the kid’s obsession at Arlington Central Library’s “truck petting zoo.”
From 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, various types of work vehicles will be on display at the library’s (1015 N. Quincy Street) east parking lot, near the tennis courts. Kids of all ages are invited to touch and explore the vehicles up close.
According to the Arlington Transit Blog, the trucks scheduled to be on display include:
- ACFD fire engine, ladder truck and ambulance
- ACPD motorcycle and police cruiser
- Street sweeper, garbage truck and dump truck from the Arlington’s Dept. of Environmental Services
- Concrete mixer from Vulcan Materials
