On September 4th, 2022, in Clarkton, NC, the first Bladen Craft & Food Truck Rodeo was held from 10 am until 6 pm. According to Leslie Cordle, one of the organizers, the family fun event was a great success.
“We will make adjustments for future events,” Leslie stated, “but all the vendors said they did well. We may adjust the time a little, but we will be hosting more events like this one.”
