In a weekly segment on 97.9 The Hill and Chapelboro.com, join Mike Benson on a two-minute adventure reporting from the streets, live and on the scene, all part of the Night Beat – presented by Franklin Motors at Midway, a full-service beer garden now open seven days a week!

This week on “Night Beat,” Mike goes to Pittsboro for the 15th Annual Pepper Fest to get a taste of some of the amazing local food served there. Can Benson pick a peck of pickled peppers? Perhaps, but you’ll have to peruse the parade of prepared packages from Pittsboro first!
