Event Details
Arma puts its own twist on its annual homecoming celebration by paying tribute to those who serve our country. Arma is home to the Arma Veterans Memorial and the V-J Homecoming, started at the end of World War II after the Victory over Japan, to welcome the boy’s home.
The event features arts and crafts, motorcycle show and competition, veteran’s parade, carnival and rides, and tractor pull. Homecoming is also home to Kansas' Largest Mud Volleyball Tournament. This wildly popular event features over 1,500 participants, 400 teams and divisions for all age groups.
