Every year in June ( this year the 20th ) the small country town of Bell Buckle Tennessee has an old time festival honoring the RC Cola and Moon Pies ! We've been living here 9 years and never been over to Bell Buckle for the RC Cola & Moon Pie Festival, been to Bell Buckle many times for the Huge Webb School & town Craft Festival.They also have many A Old Antique stores.

We had a nice time for this being our first time to the RC Festival and it was packed with people, We didn't know that so many knew of it but they came from all over just like they do for the Webb Craft Festival in October.
There were lots of vendors spread through out the town and the park and the shops were packed that you had to wait awhile to get inside (the shops downtown are like in the old west where the are set all together in a roe and under a continuous porch kinda like a strip mall ).
