Join us and get dirty digging-in your shovels to support local children battling cancer. We invite kids 17 and younger to operate more than 35 pieces of heavy construction equipment, experience up-close displays of the RAVEN helicopter, a bomb unit, police cars, fire trucks, and more. We are pulling out all the stops to support Northern Nevada children and are excited about this partnership.

All proceeds benefit the Northern Nevada Children’s Cancer Foundation.

For more information contact Jessica at 775.825.0888 or jessicalee@nnccf.org to learn more.
