Touch a Truck event held at Hy-Vee

T-R PHOTOS BY NOAH ROHLFING — Marshalltown Hy-Vee organized and sponsored Touch A Truck Saturday in the Hy-Vee parking lot, a kid-centered event that allowed youngsters to get a look at and sit in the many types of vehicles seen around town. With a Marshalltown School District bus, two Marshalltown Fire Department trucks and a Marshalltown Police Department car (as well as a rescue vehicle similar to a SWAT car) and a number of construction vehicles among the many participants. A local participant was the L. Hogeland Auto Plaza, which brought a few of its towing vehicles – including the unique “Cara-tow-van” created and operated by owner Lonnie Hogeland’s son Levi. A hit at the Marshalltown Speedway on Friday nights, it brought another fun sight to the afternoon of kid-friendly enjoyment.
