SNELLVILLE – Snellville Tourism and Trade's first Food Truck Friday and Beach Blast have been canceled due to concerns surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.
"Sadly, with the unknown nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, the decision has been made to cancel the first two Snellville Tourism and Trade events of the season," STAT Executive Director Kelly McAloon said. "However, when the risk to our vendors, staff and residents is over, our family friendly events will be back for everyone to enjoy. We look forward to putting on these events and are excited to do so as soon as possible."
Food Truck Friday was originally planned for May 1 and the Beach Blast was scheduled for May 9. All COVID-19 health recommendations have ended large gatherings such as the thousands that visit Snellville for these events. Given the long-term planning and complex logistics needed to stage the events, a back-up date for both is not feasible for 2020.
The next Food Truck Friday event is still planned for June 5 on the Towne Green from 4 to 8 p.m.
