Do you perk up at the very mention of bacon? Have you ever gotten out of bed, discovered there was no bacon in the house and driven all the way to the store just so you could have bacon with your breakfast? Would you ever eat a pretzel wrapped in bacon and then dipped in chocolate? Whether you answered yes to any or all of the above is irrelevant: either way, you won’t want to miss the 5th annual Bacon Labor Day festival this year.

It's happening for two bacon and fun-filled days in Travelers Rest.
