The event is meant to be a one-stop shop for food truck or ice cream truck businesses that may need help with a number of services through business workshops. The event will offer services such as business license application processing and information, business and safety workshops, consultations, grant funding opportunities and on-site fire, health and petroleum gas inspections.
Admission and parking are free. Food and ice cream trucks will also be serving at the event, according to the release.
