Steven Stone expects larger-than-normal crowd
If you drove by the fairgrounds yesterday, you probably saw the large number of campers, tents, and activity going on there.

Stone said the event draws coon hunters from as far away as Texas, Illiniois, Indiana, Ohio, and even Canada into Union.

You are invited to come out and experience the 50th anniversary of Treeing Walker Days at the fairgrounds.
