Whenever anyone asks me what the best event we do in Decatur is, I am always torn. Our Arts Festival is so cool, the is Book Festival impressive, and the Beer festival is fun (I mean, come on, its beer!) but hands down, the very best event we do here in the City of Decatur is the annual Touch-a-Truck!
Join Decatur Active Living on Saturday, March 8th from 10am until 1pm for the annual Touch-a-Truck Event. This fun community event gives children of all ages an opportunity to touch, explore and see their favorite trucks or equipment on wheels. The City of Decatur and DeKalb County dump trucks, fire trucks, tractors, police cars and motorcycles and many other types of vehicles will be on display.
NEW! Decatur Active Living is celebrating National Nutrition Month at this annual event. National Nutrition Month is a campaign that focuses attention on the importance of making informed food choices and developing sound eating and physical activity habits. When you come to Touch-A-Truck, join in the effort by bringing any canned or non-perishable food item. All items will be delivered to DEAM, Decatur Emergency Assistance Ministry.
Touch-a-Truck takes place in the Callaway Building Parking lot located at 120 West Trinity Place, Decatur. In case of inclement weather, the event will be rescheduled for Saturday, April 19.
