Touch a Truck, Touch a Life

by J&J on July 17, 2026

There are some events that are simply fun. Then there are events that bring an entire community together while making a real difference.

That's exactly what Legacy Touch🡥 is all about.

On July 18 at Metzger Park in Louisville, Ohio, families from across Northeast Ohio are invited to experience an incredible day filled with construction equipment, military vehicles, first responder apparatus, helicopters, interactive activities, and the opportunity to meet the people who operate them every day.

At J&J Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric, we're proud to support events that strengthen our communities, celebrate those who serve, and give families opportunities to learn, connect, and create lasting memories.

🚒 More Than Just Big Trucks

Let's be honest - kids (and plenty of adults) love climbing into big equipment.

Fire trucks.

Construction equipment.

Military vehicles.

Helicopters.

These aren't things most people get to experience up close very often.

Legacy Touch gives families a unique opportunity to not only see these incredible vehicles but also meet the professionals behind them. It's a chance to ask questions, explore careers, and gain a better understanding of the work these men and women do to serve our communities every day.

❤️ Supporting Those Who Serve

What makes Legacy Touch even more meaningful is the organization behind it.

Legacy of Honor is a nonprofit dedicated to serving veterans, first responders, and their families by helping fill gaps that often exist after military or emergency service. Their mission includes providing resources and support - including mental health assistance - to those who have dedicated their lives to serving others.

That mission resonates deeply with us.

At J&J, we know that strong communities are built by people who care for one another. Supporting organizations that invest in veterans, first responders, and their families is one way we can help give back to the people who have given so much.

🤝 Building Community Through Connection

One of the best parts of events like Legacy Touch is the opportunity to remove barriers.

For young children, climbing into a police cruiser or sitting inside a fire truck can replace uncertainty with excitement.

For teenagers, conversations with military members, firefighters, EMTs, and construction professionals might spark an interest in a future career.

For adults, it's an opportunity to meet neighbors, support a worthy cause, and spend quality time with family.

These shared experiences help build stronger, more connected communities.

💙 Why Community Matters to J&J

Because when communities come together, everyone wins.
