In celebration of National Public Works Week, the community of BWG is invited to explore and learn about the various trucks, plows, and emergency vehicles that the Town operates during our annual Touch a Truck event!

Presented by Deals with Debbie and Mister Treats, Touch a Truck will take place on Wednesday, May 22, from 4:30 to 7:30 pm, at BWG’s Urban Operation Centre (75 Melbourne Drive).

The event is a free to attend, family-friendly event that invites community members to explore and take photos with over 15 of our town fleet including a Zamboni, a backhoe, tractors, and more.
