The 11th annual Carrboro Music Festival occurred on Sunday, Sept. 28. We experienced gorgeous weather and the largest crowd ever. I’ve received many congratulations over the last few days and I’d like to send out my personal thanks to all who contributed to Carrboro’s very special day.
Thank you to the Carrboro Recreation & Parks Department, with special thanks to recreation supervisor Kim Andrews and recreation administrator Dennis Joines. I’d also like to thank the Public Works Department and streets superintendent David Poythress, the police department and Capt. Joel Booker and the fire department under Fire Chief Travis Crabtree.
Many thanks to the 2008 volunteer committee members- Charlie Berry, Catherine DeVine, Tony Galiani, Michael Gowan, Jackie Helvey, Meg McGurk, Ellen Perry and Janet Place. A special thanks (again) to Janet for the graphic-design work, especially the poster and T-shirt design. Finally, thanks to all the generous sponsors, the venues and all the musicians who donate their time and abilities.
