Vance County Tourism has planned a special New Year’s Eve celebration at Kerr Lake’s Satterwhite Point Park and is inviting everyone to come out to “test the waters” for the inaugural Catfish Drop.
The event will be from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 31.
There will even be fireworks – a few hours earlier than midnight as a crane courtesy of Fred’s Towing & Transport gently lowers into the lake a original metal sculture by local artist Christy Stainback.
Food trucks will be on site, as well as lots of children’s activities including bouncy houses and face painting.
The event is free and open to the public. Come on out and see for yourselves the first-ever Catfish Drop to usher in the New Year, Kerr Lake style!
