A special event honoring local veterans will take place later this month as the Veterans Craft Fair comes to the Coffee County Veterans Building in Manchester.
The event is scheduled for Saturday, July 25, 2026, from 8 a.m. until 3 p.m. at the Coffee County Veterans Building, located at 130 Shelton Road in Manchester.
Organizers are inviting crafters who want to be part of a meaningful community event while supporting local veterans. Booth space is available for a fee of $50 per booth.
The craft fair is being organized by Backyard Classic Foods in partnership with local veterans organizations, including DAV Chapter 90, American Legion Post 78, and VFW Post 10904. Proceeds from the event will benefit those organizations and their efforts to serve area veterans.
Community members are encouraged to attend, shop with local vendors, and show their support for veterans throughout Coffee County and the surrounding area.
Those interested in reserving a booth or learning more about the event can contact Chuck Vacovsky at 931-434-8429 or email chuck@backyardclassicfoods.com. Additional information is also available through the Backyard Classic Foods Facebook page.
The Veterans Craft Fair will be held rain or shine on July 25 at the Coffee County Veterans Building in Manchester.
