Event Benefiting Pediatric Cancer Research on Saturday
Lehi, UT – Benefiting childhood cancer research, the American Cancer Society’s Big Dig gives local children, including cancer patients and survivors, the opportunity to attend and operate heavy machinery. Sponsors and ticket holders will be “hard hats” for the day, operating heavy construction equipment in a festive, fair-like atmosphere.
Former professional football player Paul Kruger, the Diesel Brothers, and Lehi Fire and Police Department are a few of the supporters who will be at the event. Geneva Rock will be bringing its mixing truck and sweeper truck.
