Hundreds of people came out to the annual Touch a Truck event at the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre on Sunday.

More than 700 people came to the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre on Sunday for the chance to see their favourite machines up close?

Kids of all ages came out and met a wide variety of machines at the Third Annual Touch-a-Truck event at the AESC.

This free family event took place Sunday, July 21 from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. with proceeds from the barbeque lunch going to benefit Matthew’s House and the Abbotsford Hospice Society.

Organizers are still calculating how much money was raised by this year's event.

Touch-a-Truck is a fun, hands-on, educational event for the whole family.
