It has been 37 years of community spirit at McVeytown’s Country Memories Day. Our beloved hometown tradition is a testament to the power of community. It was started as way for local crafters to share their talents and has continued as an excellent opportunity to support local.

Each year neighbors, friends and families come together to make lifelong memories.

Reading the comments in the past few weeks shows just how many people look forward to and enjoy our annual event over the Memorial Day holiday weekend. Over the years the event has grown in size, with people coming from near and far.

Many look forward to the delicious local treats, great entertainment, the vibrant array of cars on display at the car show, in addition to the opportunity to shop small with the large number of local makers and crafters.

We know without a doubt that memories were made yesterday. We are already looking forward to next year, the 38th year of Country Memories Day!

What an amazing day! Was it hot? yes!!! Did that stop the crowd from attending—NO!

The vendors brought their best selections, the food trucks had amazing choices, the shuttles ran everywhere, the music was amazing and the crowd didn’t disappoint!

The many volunteers were on the spot to meet each and every need.

Mother Nature had her say too—with a drenching downpour of a thunderstorm to end the day. (We could have done without that part.)

Thank you to each person who showed up today —you made the 37th Country Memories Day unforgettable.
