"STORIES"

By Pam Pollock

KITTANNING, PA....The Kittanning Borough Crime Watch and Flynn's Commercial Tire hosted the 3rd Annual Freedom Fall Festival Semi Truck Show in Riverfront Park in Kittanning, Pennsylvania on September 27th.  Freedom Fall Festival is a family event and focuses on anti-drug, alcohol and tobacco usage in children.

It was a very rainy day for the truck show but the colorful hues of the competing big rigs made a beautiful rainbow as they parked on, coincidently, Water Street.
