Description:
In 1961, the Chamber of Commerce had a sale promotion and called it "Air Force Appreciation Day" (AFAD) The members wanted to encourage neighborly growth and express their gratitude for the economic benefits the Air Force brought to Southern Idaho by offering "cut rate prices." Throughout the years, AFAD has evolved into the largest event in Elmore County featuring one of the largest parades in Idaho. Every September, thousands of friendly people come for the celebration. The two-day event is filled with food, entertainment, prizes, and plenty of old-fashioned fun.
