Attendees from as far as 90 miles away from Allen attended the 3rd annual Allen Veteran’s Fall Festival on Saturday.
Festivities included a breakfast, a poker run, a car show, a cornhole tournament, a dutch oven meal cookoff, craft booths, food, and old-fashioned gun fights along with a bank robbery to wrap up this year’s festivities.
Co-Organizer Harold Buckbee says he wanted to do something to give back to his hometown.
Co-Organizer Jeannie Buckbee says there are still things to learn with having the event for the third time.
Doc Hinck, the President of the Council Grove Regulators Wild West Show, has had his group perform every year for the event. He says he enjoys giving back to the Veterans.
The Buckbees intend to have the event on the first Saturday of October each year.
