Some of the places that will be visited in Appanoose County include the downtown shops at the Centerville Square, the Shoppes at Bradley Hall, the Continental Hotel, the Exline Country Store, Rathbun Lake and the Rathbun Fish Hatchery. Thanks to the assistance of the Centerville Chamber of Commerce, an interesting auto tour is schedule for visiting historic sites around the county including stops at Moravia and Plano.
The western rally will conclude on Monday with an evening performance by the Mudcats Country Band. On Tuesday, the silver trailers will be seen caravanning south to a Region Rally in Columbia, Missouri.
