Coopertown, Tennessee
Our annual Touch-A-Truck event is coming up again! Adults and kids of all ages can get a close-up look at the vehicles and equipment used by Coopertown’s fire, EMS, law enforcement, and other first responder or rescue services at this event. It’s also a great way to meet the people that protect and serve our city. The first Coopertown event took place on September 25, 2021, when Coopertown celebrated its 25th anniversary at Coopertown Middle School, and the Coopertown Police Department hosted its First Annual Touch-A-Truck event. The Sixth Annual Touch-A-Truck event is coming to Coopertown Elementary School on Saturday, September 19, 2026, from 10 am to 2 pm.
Many agencies have been invited to attend this year’s event. However, their participation in the event may depend on available resources, call volume and/or weather conditions. This year’s list of invited agencies includes the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF), Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI), Tennessee Highway Patrol (THP), Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT), Tennessee Highway Safety Office (THSO), Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA), Robertson County Emergency Communications District (E911), Robertson County Sheriff’s Office (RCSO), Robertson County Emergency Management Agency (EMA), Robertson County Emergency Medical Services (EMS), Robertson County Animal Control (RCAC), and Pleasant View Volunteer Fire Department (PVVFD).
Not only do the event visitors get to check out all of the interesting vehicles and equipment on display, but there will be lots of activities for everyone. Hungry and thirsty visitors will be able to purchase some food and refreshments provided by Chick-Fil-A, and Kona Ice. As with all of our events, Coopertown Police will be accepting donations at our tent to help support our annual Shop-With-A-Cop program, ensuring disadvantaged children receive gifts for the Christmas season.
We would also like to recognize Reeve’s Septic Tank Service for providing outdoor restroom facilities for this event.
Mark your calendars!
