Carrboro Day
I personally love this event. It is very small, and you probably can't pass too much time here, but it is a celebration of community that rarely happens anymore. Kids run around in a safe environment while the crowds gather under the old shade tree in front of Town Hall to listen to music.
C and I watched the Carrboro High School football team lead kids in games and activities. The kids were squealing in laughter as they ran under the parachute.
We then made our way over to the main stage.
The Carrboro Fire Department had a big fire truck out that kids could climb in and on. And the police had some cars out as well. There was also a used book and VHS sale, and many booths with information about the area and local organizations. They were even giving out free flu shots. Concessions are for sale. There are balloon animals for kids, and even a small sandbox.
There were a few families camped out at Carrboro Day, with folding chairs and big picnic blankets. C and I only stayed for about an hour. But with free parking in one of the many town municipal lots and a small crowd, it was worth it.
