Dozer Day is a family fun event with dozers,
earthmovers, fire trucks, Diamond Dig and much more...
What is Dozer Day?
A
fun family event for everyone! Dozer Day puts
kids close to--actually on and operating--dump
trucks, dozers, excavators, and much more. More
than that, Dozer Day provides two days of family
fun for all ages while getting familiar with the
companies, people, and amazing machines that
build the region's infrastructure. And there is
music, food, giveaways, and great activities for
the whole family, like digging for treasure,
pipe crawls, and concrete crafts.
Dozer Day originated as a Parks Foundation
fundraiser, but now, thanks to great supporters,
the event is able to go beyond, and last year
gave to nearly every school district in Clark
County, Y Housing, the Humane Society,
Children's Museum, Vancouver Fire Department,
and so much more. Dozer Day continues to grow,
supporting additional non-profit organizations
that focus on children in the community. Last
year Dozer Day drew over 16,000 people and
raised nearly $100,000 for charities...and tons
of goodwill for the construction industry.
What can the whole family do at Dozer Day?
Dozer Day is a fun event for the entire family.
For grown-ups, the diamond dig, tool dig and
operating equipment is popular, along with a
picnic in the park and KUPL live on site. For
kids of all ages, Radio Disney, riding all kinds
of equipment, digging for treasures, tire and
pipe crawls and collecting stickers for the hard
hats are top choices. Families can also look and
climb over a collection of antique equipment,
watch how curbs are made or even watch a
concrete pumper in action. Adults may also
participate in the Dozer Rodeo. A Big Hauler
takes visitors around the entire site.
Washington State Patrol, local fire departments,
S.W.A.T. and Waste Connections are also great
fun.
How much does it cost to come to Dozer Day and
where can I get tickets?
