Coopertown Police 4th Annual Touch-A-Truck Event

Coopertown, Tennessee

Touch-A-Truck allows adults and children of all ages to get a close-up look at vehicles and equipment utilized by Coopertown’s law enforcement, fire, EMS, and other first responder or rescue services. It also provides a fantastic chance to speak one-on-one with first responders. Coopertown’s inaugural event was held 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 Fourth Annual Touch-A-Truck event is returning to Coopertown Middle School on Saturday, September 21, 2024, from 10 am to 4 pm.

Numerous 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 Highway Patrol (THP), Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT), Tennessee Highway Safety Office (THSO), Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA), Robertson County Sheriff’s Office (RCSO), Robertson County Emergency Management Agency (EMA), Robertson County Emergency Medical Services (EMS), Robertson County Animal Control (RCAC), Pleasant View Volunteer Fire Department (PVVFD), Air Evac Lifeteam, and the United States Army.

In addition to all of the interesting vehicles and equipment on display, visitors to Touch-A-Truck can play cornhole, dunk a cop, get their face painted, enjoy music, and purchase some food and refreshments provided by Chick-Fil-A, Deja Moo, Kona Ice, and Whitt’s Barbeque.
