On Saturday, the whole town each year invites railroad fans young and old to an old fashioned reunion at the B&O Depot Museum, the Ambulance Service Function Hall and the Rowlesburg Park. Railroaders from Cumberland to Grafton come to enjoy the exhibits, chicken dinner in the Park and rides to the top of Cannon Hill. On Sunday, bicycle clubs and paddling clubs are invited to an outdoor mountain and river festival in Rowlesburg starting at 8:00 A.M. in the Park. The day starts off with a hearty breakfast of eggs, sausage gravy on biscuits and lots of coffee. The Country Roads Cyclist Club of Harrison County lays out the road tours. Even Elvis makes an appearance in the Park! The Big Labor Day Weekend Celebration is topped off each year on Monday with the famous Ox Roast, country music and fireworks. The roast beef is pit-cooked all night in the Park on a fire of local hardwoods. Secret seasonings are added from a recipe said to be handed down for from a former Rowlesburg railroad chef. The roast beef is served with complete dinners or on sandwiches. For entertainment, the Park offers live country music all day. Monday is the traditional antique and classic car show and things end with a bang--the BIG fireworks show against the backdrop of Cannon Hill!

The Washington family built at least 10 estates in Jefferson County, but not all remain. The homes on this tour are private historic residences.

This festival has become a legend in the mountains of Pocahontas County. Original country crafts, great sounding music by regional bands, and the best food you can find anywhere. Spend one last day enjoying the yellow leaves before winter sets in. Fun for the whole family! Bring your dog for the dog show. See Ms. Roadkill crowned at 10:00 a.m. at the Gazebo. Las year Smokey the Bear stopped in - you won't know who dropped in this year unless you come see for yourself. The festival features clogging, soccer games, harvest games for all, horseshoe pitching, scavenger hunt, agricultural and homemaking exhibits, and much more. Last year's Kidfid was so popular that we are featuring them again this year - better and bigger than ever. You'll get a kick out of watching youngsters as young as five play a fiddle and banjo. See you there!
