We know it's cold now but things will be heating up in St. Albans soon! Be sure to put these dates on your calendar!

Well, the folks of Yakfestwv, St. Albans’ Train Day, and St. Albans Fall Y'all Festival have come together to form “St. Albans Fairs & Festival”. The intent and purpose of “StAFF” is to grow and build even stronger and more successful events in St. Albans, WV.

Here, we still keep our rock solid dedication to support the Saint Albans Police Department K9 Unit and our beloved K9 officer and her handler. To add, we will also aim to contribute to and foster a safe, healthy, and vibrant community where families thrive and future generations can flourish. In this effort, we will focus on supporting youth initiatives that promote education, mental health, and physical well-being.

See the dates of our 2026 events and for the registration link location to sign up for the coming 2026 Dog Bowl. This year’s event will bee taking place at Towne n Country Lanes on March 22nd.
