Family Food Truck Rally Brings Live Music, Food, Fun Aug. 21

Join us from 4-8 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 21, for a FREE Family Food Truck Rally on the Kirksey Recreation Center’s east lawn and south parking lot. All ages are welcome to attend and enjoy food, live music, Face Flair, a water slide bounce house, arts and crafts, and lawn games and activities.

Detroit Soul Revue will provide the jams from 5-8 p.m., while five food trucks from Fun Food Express, PizzaPazza Food Truck, Rainey’s Ice Cream, Sonny’s Hamburgers and Tacos Te Amo provide a wide range for your taste buds. Face Flair will be doing face painting and henna tattoos, while Michigan Bounce House Rentals provides inflatable water fun and Livonia Parks and Recreation provides the rest. The food trucks and Face Flair cost money, but event entry and all the activities are FREE!

Touch-a-Truck Returns to Greenmead Aug. 28

A favorite for all ages, Touch-a-Truck is back at Greenmead Historical Park from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 28. The horns on the trucks will all be off during a quiet time from 8:30-10:30 a.m.

Get ready to get hands on with all sorts of vehicles, from construction equipment to emergency services, military, utility and more! You'll be surprised at how big some of these vehicles are up close. Check out a video of the 2019 event here.

Food vendors will also be scattered around the event with snacks available for purchase. There is no cost to attend, but there is a suggested $2 parking donation. Visit LivoniaAMRotary.com for more information.
