Pike Days has no single organizer — it's a collection of independent events across dozens of towns. PikeDays.com is a free community directory created to help visitors discover everything happening along Route 40.
his website was built by Nate Williams, a Fayette County native and lover of history and the region. Despite growing up near Route 40, he didn't discover this festival until stumbling on miles of yard sales driving from Washington to Uniontown, PA one sunny May weekend.
This site was built so no one else misses out - and helps fulfill the mission of his company, The Fringe Way, to help local communities and main street compete in the modern era.
