Atlanta, GA --  On April 30 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and numerous state and local law enforcement agencies will give the public another opportunity to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs.  You can bring your medications for disposal to numerous sites across the state and the metro Atlanta area.

On Saturday April 30th Alpharetta is having their 13th Annual Touch a Truck event, 10:00 AM at North Park.  There will be dozens of big trucks, fire trucks, old timey trucks, rescue and military vehicles and more at the event.  Just because the event is called Touch a Truck there are also loads of things for the girls to do too. 

There will be plenty of activities including face painting, police dog demonstrations, animal balloons and inflatables for the kids to jump around in.   Touch a Truck is free and so is parking.  However, as the event can be crowded be sure to take a stroller for the younger ones. 

My wife and I attended many free festivals last year and Touch a Truck was the most family friendly of all of them.  An added benefit of the event is that you can talk to your local police officers, emergency responders and more who will share stories or helpful information with you.
