Community spirit prevails as people gather at this annual event, always the 1st Saturday of October, for great food, a chance to view our area school bands, floats by local churches and organizations, and best of all – an opportunity to visit and renew friendships with former friends and neighbors and meet people new to the community. The funds from this day are used to support the care and upkeep of the Cedarview Cemetery, located northwest of Doniphan. |
