This title is based on the town's annual Chitlin' Strut Festival, held annually on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Each year, tens of thousands of people come to the festival to enjoy music, crafts, carnival rides, and food of all description. Of course, chitlin's are the main attraction. The town is also home to the Old Salley School Museum, which highlights local history and culture. It's the small town home town that everyone remembers.
People still speak to each other and to strangers, and men open doors for ladies.
Main Street and downtown are the meeting and shopping centers for its citizens. No malls here. A wide green park expanse runs through the middle of town, with often-occupied benches for visiting and enjoying the street scene. Plainly displayed is a Conestoga wagon used by pioneers crossing the nation. The old jail is now the town museum.
