Bynum, NC - ChathamArts' 10th Annual ClydeFEST Kids Carnival was a terrific, one-of-a-kind, authentic Chatham County experience for people of all ages.

Congratulations to C. Carter who won the critter raffle, as well as the Murphy family of Pittsboro and Clayton family of Cary who were high bidders in the Critter Auctions.

ChathamArts is very grateful to the volunteers, food vendors, and local organizations who joined us in making Sunday's ClydeFEST such a memorable day. The event was a terrific example of collaboration among town and county staff, and non-profit organizations and for-profit enterprises in support of the arts.

ChathamArts is especially grateful to our friends at Shakori Hills for loaning and maintaining the tents, Tracy and Lashonda at Chatham County Parks and Recreation for working with us to use the ballfield, the board of Bynum Front Porch and the residents of Bynum.

Most of all, thank you to Clyde Jones, our local Chatham County creative treasure.

Please support the following ClydeFEST sponsors who understand the importance and value of keeping the arts alive in Chatham County: Waste Management; WLHC-FM/Life 103.1 FM; Weaver Street Realty; Capt. John's Dockside Seafood, and Crooks Corner.
