At the event, children can ride inside a wide variety of construction vehicles alongside a friendly certified machine operator, play in sandpits, participate in other fun activities, and enjoy great food from some delicious local food trucks.

Day of the Dozers is an event where children can experience the thrill of operating a piece of construction equipment with a trained and experienced operator while helping to raise funding for Children's Minnesota.
