September 7 @ 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
In its 20th year ‘Illinois Day of the Dozer’ is still giving kids the ultimate ride.
On Saturday, September 7th, kids will get the experience of a lifetime: a chance to see, ride, and drive heavy construction equipment! The event runs at the McLean County Fairgrounds in Bloomington, IL.
In its 19 years, more than 15,000 kids have attended this one-of-a-kind event! On this day, the kids will be in the driver’s seat and operate dozers, excavators, and other heavy equipment with a professional operator at their side.
Additional farming, construction, semi-trucks, military, and Emergency vehicles will be on exhibit, plus the world’s largest sandbox and other kid friendly activities. Food, refreshments, and souvenirs will be available. It’s a great day for good dirty fun!
Tickets for kids are $10 and adults are free. Admission includes souvenir ‘hard hat’. Purchase tickets in advance online at dayofthedozer.net.
Proceeds will benefit the “Stay 4” Project®; a local initiative designed to address the high school drop-out crisis and help low-income students that demonstrate the ability to succeed yet are at risk of dropping out.
