Betsy is coming! Betsy is coming!
May 30th is the day, 11:00 'til 2:30 the hours, for the reenactment of Betsy Dowdy's famous 1775 ride from Currituck to Hertford, bring word to General Skinner that the British were moving to take Great Bridge.

Join us for this very special America 250NC event celebrating our nation's 250th birthday, and the part our local colonists played in the struggle for independence.

Betsy should arrive on horseback around 12:00 or 12:30 (horses can be notoriously independent themselves when it comes to time!), but reenactors, exhibitors, and vendors will be on hand throughout to give you a sense of what life was like in Revolutionary Carolina.

Join us Saturday, May 30 for this free America 250 NC event!

✨Inner Banks Antiques Market Update✨

After careful consideration, we have made the decision to postpone the market to a later date. As this is our inaugural year, we want to ensure the event launches at its strongest—with a well-rounded vendor mix and an engaging atmosphere that provides meaningful exposure & opportunity for our vendors while creating an exceptional experience for attendees. Taking additional time will allow us to fully achieve those goals. We don’t have a new date just yet—but stay tuned!! All vendor fees & tickets have been refunded and should be received in 3-5 business days.

Thank you THANK YOU for the interest & support you’ve all shown for this event, it means more than you know. Let’s continue on this journey together to build a fantastic event for our community!

If these doors could play back what they've seen over the last couple hundred years, we would all be lovers of history. The Perquimans County Courthouse has seen everything from marriages to murder trials.
