Coopertown 2nd Annual Touch-A-Truck at Experience Robertson County

Coopertown, Tennessee

Coopertown held its 25th Anniversary Celebration last year on September 25, 2021, at Coopertown Middle School. The event featured Coopertown’s First Annual Touch-A-Truck event, hosted by Coopertown Police Department. Touch-A-Truck is an opportunity for adults and children of all ages to get a close up look at vehicles and equipment used by various law enforcement, Fire, EMS, and other first responder or rescue agencies that serve the Coopertown area. Additionally, it affords an excellent opportunity to be able to talk one-on-one with first responders.

During last year’s event, Coopertown Police Department featured a dunking booth, where visitors got the chance to dunk a cop. Donations at the dunking booth helped support Shop With A Cop in December, which allowed Coopertown Police to take many underprivileged children Christmas shopping.
