MACOMB TOWNSHIP — From rigs to wreckers, monster trucks and all that’s between and beyond, all were there to be seen and climbed upon at Tons ’O Trucks & Wheeled Wonders on June 24.

“We had a monster truck, we had all the fire department’s trucks there,” said Sal DiCaro, Macomb Township parks and recreation director. “The sheriff’s department vehicles were there.

“We had dump trucks and garbage trucks and every kind of truck you could think of,” DiCaro said.

According to DiCaro, around 5,200-5,400 people came to Seneca Middle School to see the many machines on display. Along with the 66 vehicles on display, a Macomb County Sheriff’s Office helicopter stopped by. Activities at the event included operating a fire hose and Pinewood Derby races.

Macomb Township Parks and Recreation puts on concerts at Macomb Corners Park on Thursday nights and is hosting the “Rosco on the Run - Picnic Series” at Waldenburg Park on Tuesday, July 18, and at the recreation center on Tuesday, July 25.
