Despite the heat on Saturday, many came out to the Haverford Reserve to enjoy the Touch-A-Truck event.
Many adults and children enjoyed climbing on and in school buses, construction vehicles, fire trucks and more.
Currently the total amount of money raised for the fundraising event has not been determined.
"We need to raise money for shade sails to keep the playground cool in hot weather," the Haverford Township Civic Council President Chris Whiting explained to the Haverford-Havertown Patch in a previous story. "The shade sails are part of our continuing effort to make the playground accessible to all children even in hot weather."

I want to thank our Fire Departments, Paramedics, and Emergency personal, Haverford Township Public Works, Pennstar and the Haverford Recreation Department for supporting Touch-A-Truck this year. 100% of the money raised will go toward Freedom Playground improvements. Special thanks to Jim Davies for all of his hard work and Jim McCann for arranging for the Pennstar Helocopter to land, be on display and give a helcopter ride to the winning raffle ticket winner.
