The first Saturday after Labor Day of each year marks Penn’s Store’s biggest and most exciting event. Racing outhouses, music and a classic car, truck and motorcycle show all come together for an unusual fun day!
This event started out as a dedication of Penn’s Store’s new outhouse in 1992. Why would anyone celebrate getting an outhouse? Because the store had never had one. The store had no running water or restroom facilities of any kind, just plenty of trees. The store still does not have running water, but it does have an outhouse. Some of us thought that was worth celebrating, especially the ladies that stay in the store all day.
