Our 2023 Public Works Celebration ROCKED!

Over 50 Big Trucks and displays, dozens of volunteers and sponsors, and an amazing VIP lineup crushed our expectations - in spite of the rain!

A little rain couldn't keep hundreds of people from across the region from coming to our 2023 Public Works Celebration and Big Truck Day.  The day was an enormous success and it's all thanks to our partners, supporters, volunteers, and citizens from across the region who came to learn about Public Works!

A GREAT BIG THANK YOU TO ALL WHO PARTICIPATED!!!
