Today's storytime featured Jason from the Kasson Public Utility Department. The children and their mom's got really up close and looked at an electrical cherrypicker. Jason explained the safety procedures used on his truck. The group learned that the truck can be remotely started, and the bucket and base of the truck can control the boom bucket. The children had a great time.










Children's Librarian Ingvild reads about trucks to the children.








Children got to drive small trucks and see the tracks the tires make on the paper.
