The first ever Fall Hog Food Festival was held last Saturday in Selmer. The festival, organized by the McNairy Regional Alliance with part of the proceeds going to sponsor Jack Cheshier’s Christmas Shopping Spree program, is likely to become an annual event.

According to early figures, attendance was in the thousands for the one-day event featuring barbeque, chili, cobblers, a car show, children’s rides, live entertainment and more.
