City of Greenwood Parks Department and Greenwood Parks Foundation announce Food Truck Pilot Program
First-ever food truck program to launch at Old City Park this summer
GREENWOOD, Ind. – The City of Greenwood’s Parks & Recreation Department and the Greenwood Parks Foundation are partnering to bring food trucks to Old City Park starting later this month. The Greenwood Board of Public Works and Safety approved the pilot program during its meeting yesterday afternoon.
Food trucks will be present from 5 – 9 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays starting May 21. The pilot program is expected to run through the end of October. Food trucks will be located at Old City Park, along Meridian Street, and will be permitted to park parallel to the bocce ball courts and shelter house.
“We believe this program will enhance Old City Park visitors’ recreational experience while also supporting local restaurants and small businesses,” said Greenwood Parks & Recreation Director Rob Taggart. “If successful, we hope to expand the program, cultivating relationships with vendors and garnering feedback from residents.”
Interested food truck vendors can register and reserve space here. Proceeds from fees for the program will benefit the Greenwood Parks Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization, that promotes, preserves, and enhances public parks, greenwood spaces, and recreational programs in Greenwood.
