(La Porte County, IN) - The public is invited to join La Porte County government employees and elected officials for lunch in sort of a county fair type atmosphere.

 

A half dozen food trucks offering things like pizza, meditteranean food and ice cream will be outside the courthouse in Michigan City.

 

The menu will be similar on Friday from seven food trucks across the street from the county government complex in downtown La Porte. 

 

There will be picnic tables at each location for people wanting to sit down with their orders, said La Porte County Commissioner Steve Holifield. 

 

Last year, the first time event was considered enough of a success for it to return this year with a few more food trucks.

 

Holifield said It’s a chance for county employees to get to know each other and the public to meet and greet their elected officials.

 

“There are going to be several of us there,” he said.

 

The event both days will run from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.  One of the foods will be French fries served from a fire truck at each location.
