| ~ Looking Back for a moment ~ The first four years the festival was held in June and called The Fete De la Musique. In 2002 we moved to the last Sunday in September and began calling it The Carrboro Music Festival. 2008 will be the seventh year as festival coordinator for Gerry Williams, who says "This is the most incredible music event that I've been involved with during my thirty year career in and around music. Unlike many aspects of the music business, this is entirely about celebrating our community and its music. The range and quality of what we see and hear each year is simply amazing!" For a quick look of what
the Carrboro Music Festival is all about (filmed in 2005)-

their time and energy over the past 10 years. Our festival would not exist
without them. |

Want to be a part of this incredible community
event? You can do that while making new friends or hanging out with old
friends. There are numerous types of jobs to be done. Help backstage,
assist in traffic direction and parking or work at an information table.
Those are but a few of the ways that you can help while still hearing
an awful lot of music.

Activities
The Town Commons again featured a number of activities for kids. A twenty foot high scramble slide and Cameron the Caterpillar gave our youngsters plenty of exercise. Ellen Perry provided materials and supplied a fun, educational, hands-on creative arts experience. Specialty food vendors were there to provide sustenance. All of these activities were right next to the Town Commons stage where six wonderful bands provided the music.
