ALGONA—In year number seven of existence, the “Salute to Veterans” event was held in Algona on Thursday, July 25 and once again the event was a huge success.

Things started off with a noon meal at the Farm Bureau Shelter House where for $10, a person got a pulled-pork or shredded chicken sandwich, chips, a cookie or a scotcharoo and drink with all the proceeds going toward the free gate at the 2024 Kossuth County Fair.
