Apple Chill Celebrates 30th Year
By Kellie Dixon and Jenise Hudson | April 22The soft hum of air conditioners keeping vendors cool blended with children's laughter and musical notes Sunday afternoon as Chapel Hill celebrated its 30th annual Apple Chill festival. This year's event, which drew about 44,000 people, stretched from Raleigh to Mallette streets and swelled to include part of South Columbia Street. About 66 officers patrolled the event. While funnel cakes and fried candy bars were abundant, some found themselves drawn to more traditional summer treats.
