Benevento recently participated in a kids’ Touch A Truck event at the Liberty Tree Mall in Danvers. ย Judging from all of the kids’ happy faces, it was proven once again that little kids ย + ย BIG TRUCKS ย = ย HUGE SMILES !
Benevento brought a new OshKosh Concrete Mixer and also a Mack Dump Truck. ย Kids were allowed to climb into the cabs of the trucks (with their parents’ assistance of course) and practice “steering” the truck and of course honkingย the horn. ย There was aย ย T-shirt Quiz and we also raffled off seven toy trucks at the end of the event.
The Touch A Truck event benefited the Simon Youth Foundation. Read more about SYF here. ย Owner Charlie Benevento made a $250 donation to the foundation, which gives out scholorships and helps at-risk youth remain in school.
Special thanks goes out to all of the families and kids in attendance and also to Benevento drivers Bryan Pierce (Concrete) and Scott Harmon (S&S), Raffle Drawing Master Lori Hays and event photog John Faxon.
