The Mighty Moo Festival

The Mighty Moo Festival and Reunion is held each Father’s Day weekend in June.

Over the past 47 years, this event has provided a reunion opportunity for crew members of the USS Cowpens CVL25 who served in WWII and those from the USS Cowpens CG63, which is currently serving in our US Navy’s fleet. Each year the veterans and their families return to our town to celebrate their history and service to our country.
