TALLADEGA COUNTY, Ala. – There was no shortage of things to do in the Coosa Valley region on Saturday, Oct. 12! A pair of annual festivals drew crowds in south Talladega County as well as a big veteran-related music event in the Lincoln area.
John Cox Stadium hosted a combo event – the “Pumpkin Festival & CoosaFest 484” in Childersburg, while the Childersburg Rescue Squad’s “Ride to the Rescue” brought hundreds of bike riders to town, along with a Classic Car, Truck & Bike show and some of the south’s best BBQ, with “all the fixin’s.”
And for the 14th consecutive year, Oak Grove’s Fall Family Festival was the biggest and best ever, along with a great collection of vintage vehicles from the Marble City Cruisers.
Up in Lincoln’s Dovetail Landing Veteran Outreach & Therapy Center, the “Rockin’ for Recovery” Festival honored veterans while providing lots of family fun, including a fireworks show.
