Decatur holds annual Touch-a-Truck on March 25

Decatur Active Living will host the annual Touch-a-Truck event on Saturday, March 25, from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. at the East Lake MARTA station north parking lot.

The free 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.

City Schools of Decatur will have a school bus on site and children have the opportunity to learn about school bus safety.

The city is also encouraging visitors to ride their bike to the event to have it registered by the Decatur Police Department. All those who ride their bike to the event will also receive a special bike pin.

Since March is National Nutrition Month, bring any canned or non-perishable food item to donate, too.

Parking will be limited, so take MARTA, walk or ride your bike to the event. In case of inclement weather, the event will be moved to April 15.
