The City of Fishers has postponed Monday’s Touch-a-Truck event because of the potential for severe weather.
Fishers Parks announced the postponement Monday, saying the decision was made “out of an abundance of caution” for guests, staff and vendors.
The free family event had been scheduled from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Nickel Plate District Amphitheater in downtown Fishers as part of National Public Works Week activities.
The event was set to feature a variety of city vehicles and equipment, including snowplows, fire trucks, police vehicles, tractors and excavators. Demonstrations from Fishers Department of Public Works, Fishers Fire Department and Fishers Police Department were also planned.
In a statement posted on social media, organizers said they understand many families were looking forward to the event and thanked the public for its patience and understanding.
City officials said they are actively working to secure a new date for the event and will announce rescheduling details soon.
Residents are also being encouraged to remain weather aware throughout the afternoon and evening as storms move through central Indiana.
