Welcome to the Eastern 4-H Center
From meetings and conferences, corporate retreats and team building
programs to banquets and receptions, our exceptional facility, beautiful
setting, recreational opportunities and highly qualified staff are here
to help you "make the best better". Design and implement your own
program with your materials and staff, or let us help you with planning,
materials, and expert instructors.
The Eastern 4-H Center opened in May of 2001 with appropriated funding
by the state of North Carolina and significant contributions from
corporations, foundations and individuals across the state. The Eastern
4-H Center is owned and operated by
NC State University and administered within
the system of NC 4-H
Camps in the
College of Agriculture and Life
Sciences .
PLEASE NOTE - You do not have to be a member of 4-H to rent the facility
or participate in camps.
Our Mission
The mission of the
Center is to provide year-round training and education that promotes
lifelong learning through outdoor educational and recreation
programs for all.
The Center’s staff is dedicated to providing every participant an
opportunity to feel accepted, valued and cared about as a member of
the community. Creating friendships and a sense of safety are as
important to us as the activities we teach. Our vision is to inspire
and create productive citizens through lifelong learning
opportunities that promote diversity and inclusion for all.
Our corporate programs and community opportunities extend the use of
this outstanding facility and dedicated staff to the entire
community.
Whether you’re planning a retreat or business meeting, learning to
sail, dropping 40 feet on the giant swing, kayaking up Maybelle
Creek or sharing talents around an evening campfire, the focus of
our program is on helping you learn to solve problems, be creative,
live and work in a caring community.
