‘Touch-A-Truck’ fund-raiser to be held March 7
The South Cape Entertainment and Hospitality Associations and Cape Coral Veterans Museum are inviting families to come out to Lee County’s First Touch-A-Truck Event to be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday, March 7, in the Veterans Museum Parking lot, 4820 Leonard St., Cape Coral.
“Kids of all ages” are invited to stop by and discover and explore their favorite vehicles. All participants will receive a truck passport to visit the designated locations for a chance to win a prize.
There will be live entertainment, health and safety exhibitors, local vendors and sponsors.
Admission is free and parking will be available at numerous public parking lots located close by.
Tickets will be available for children’s activities including a duck pond, face painting, and crafts and also for a charity basket raffle.
Parent supervision is required, and cameras are highly recommended.
This event was inspired by Ethan, the 3-year-old, truck loving, grandson of Fran and Steve Marsino, who is affected by Fragile X syndrome, a genetic condition that causes intellectual disability, behavioral and mental health issues, and developmental and language delays.
Net proceeds from the 2015 Cape Coral Touch a Truck event will benefit the National Fragile X Foundation.
