Let's see? You're having a party a the Cat's Cradle in Carrboro. The
reception is at the ArtsCenter in Carrboro (BTW, it's called The
ArtsCenter, not the Carrboro ArtsCenter). And you call it the Chapel
Hill White Party?  

Did someone here flunk geography 101?  Why not tell the truth and call
it the Carrboro White Party.  A lot of people ignore Carrboro as a
separate town, and dateline Carrboro events as happening in Chapel Hill.
Like the so called "Chapel Hill Music Scene" which happens just as much
in Carrboro (Cradle and ArtsCenter) as Chapel Hill (506, Lizard & Snake,
etc.)

It's time to realize that Carrboro is a cool town on it's own right. 
We're not called the "Paris of the Piedmont" for nothing.  This
weekend,  there's a show of Salvidor Dali prints and original paintings
and sculptures at Town Hall.  Just try to do that in Chapel Hill. 
Tuesday, the Triangle Transit Authority's RailFest brings the
RegioSprinter self-propelled light rail car to Carr Mill, in Carrboro.
We have the famous Carrboro Farmer's Market.  And we have Carrboro Day
on May 3rd. All this is in Carrboro, not Chapel Hill.

Bottom line. If you've got an event happening in Carrboro, don't promote
it as happening in Chapel Hill.  Thanks.
