CC - Carteret Cruisers Whirligig Trip

Register
Our November trip takes us to Wilson, NC for the Whirligig Festival. The North Carolina Whirligig Festival was created in 2004 to encourage community spirit and unity. Vollis Simpson’s iconic Whirligigs, uniquely Wilson symbols, were the perfect focal point. Since then, the festival has been held annually during the first full weekend in November to celebrate people and art in motion.

We will leave from Fort Benjamin at 8:30am. Please arrive by 8:15 to get everyone loaded and ready to roll by 8:30. Approximate return time 4-5pm.

There will be lots of food and craft vendors so come out and enjoy the festival with us!

Registration is $20 per person.
Registration is available at ccpr.recdesk.com
