Asheboro police estimate that 20,000 to 30,000 people trickled into downtown on Saturday, April 18 for the city's first annual Asheboro Chili Cookoff. The weather was a perfect 75 degrees with no humidity and a gentle breeze. Organizers have already started planning the 2010 event.
On Monday, WGHP did a wrap-up story. Click the link to see the story. We were all suprised by the high number of people who showed up. That's what happens when a steady stream of people attends a festival or attraction. The numbers add up throughout the day.
Since WGHP had no newscast on Saturday, they were working with a very skeleton crew and weren't able to come over and get any video. That's why the images from this Website are included in their story -- and again we thank the photography students from Randolph Community College for their work.

Where can we find out who won the rest of the raffle prizes?
ReplyDeleteThanks for visitng the Website and asking that question. Typically only the primary winner of such an event is announced. Is there any particular raffle prize you would like to know about? Again, thanks for visiting the Website and I encourge you to keep coming back as we're still posting information.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bryan, Greta and everyone else for giving Asheboro some real economic stimulus!
