Hillsborough Hog Day returns to its original location at River Park off East Margaret Lane in downtown Hillsborough for this year’s annual event, June 18 and 19.
The event features crafters, games, contests, music and great barbecue. Hog Day 2010 will include the first Hog Day Invitational, in which last year’s top cookers compete for the People’s Choice award. Participants will be able to purchase a sample flight of the top five barbecues or a sandwich from their favorite. In addition, the Eno River Farmers’ Market will host a potato salad and cole slaw contest.
Vendors’ booths are available to nonprofit organizations and Hillsborough Chamber of Commerce members for $50 and to artists and crafters for $125.
The event is free and open to the public.
