The Ephrata Fire Department had a firehose set up and a firefighter helped children to spray the hose to ‘put out’ a fire. First responder organizations take opportunities such as Touch-A-Truck to connect with local children and educate them on safety.

EPHRATA - The Ephrata Touch-A-Truck event saw dozens of families at the Splash Zone parking lot on Saturday. More than a dozen emergency, construction and military vehicles from around the county were lined up with staff ready to greet patrons. Children were able to climb aboard some, and even turn on the lights or sirens in some cases. Others had gear and tools to share and explain what they do.
