RIDGEWAY – The Pig will be back on the Ridge Friday, Nov. 1 and Saturday, Nov. 2. It will be the 25th anniversary of the festival and a big crowd is expected to come out and celebrate.
Friday night’s “No Pigs allowed” runs from 6 – 10:30 p.m. with activities for kids, craft sales, and a street party. While, “No pigs allowed” on Friday night, there will be delicious and different non-pork cuisine for sale.
Saturday kicks off with the BBQ judging contest at 9 a.m. with classic and antique cars on display from 9:30 till 12:30, a hog-calling contest, and then a fun cruise-by with former Town Councilman Don Prioleau entertaining as he introduces and comments on the vehicles.
With great fall weather predicted, it should be the perfect weekend for shopping at vendor booths or at the stocked-for-Christmas shops along Palmer Street.
