The 43rd Annual Fort Scott Good Ol’ Days Festival Kicks Off On Friday May 31 With The Largest Parade In Bourbon County.  Be Sure To Bring Your Lawn Chair And Line Up Along Main Street Between 6th Street Running North To Wall Street, Then West To National, Then Back South To 6th Street.  This Years Grand Marshall Is Lavetta Simmons.
The First Year Had Several Locations Where Events Took Place, The Pool, Frary Field, Gunn Park, And Downtown.  Eventually It Was Realized That Everything Should Be Downtown, And That’s Where We Are 43 Years Later.
