Spring Around the Plantation

Spring has sprung and it is time to come out of hibernation!  If the beautiful weather isn’t enough to get you out of your cave, all the fun and exciting activities and opportunities for fun in the sun in and around the plantation will be!

We are all anxious to get back to our favorite water activities around The Plantation now that the weather is warming up.  The Sound Links Golf Course is in full swing and the Marina is awaiting your return.  The kayaks and water skis are calling your name already!  Those fish aren’t going to catch themselves!  But, while your stretching out those sea legs, let’s not forget about all the other fun activities around Albemarle Plantation as well.

Mark your calendars for March 16^th because you’ll be green with envy if you miss the St. Patrick’s day celebration at Ghost Harbor Brewing Company in Elizabeth City.  With live music, Green Beer straight from the tap and free Pretzel Buns and Green Beer Cheese; there is no better way to kick off the season!  And if that’s not enough to lure you in, don’t forget about the gifts, prizes and games!

As we mentioned, we know you’re anxious to get back out on the golf course, what better way to dust the cobwebs off your clubs than a fun game of Leprechaun Ball?  You’ll be green with envy if you miss the 2^nd Annual Leprechaun Gold Tournament in Elizabeth City.   Keep the green ball in rotation to keep your team in the game!  Teams of 4 compete for prizes and a wee bit of pride!  Contact the YMCA at the Pines for more information.

If culture is what you’re craving this season, nearby Edenton has you covered.  The Chowan Arts Council will be displaying the best of North Carolina photography from now until the end of April.  Titled, From Mountains to the Sea, the exhibit will showcase all the natural beauty that North Carolina possesses.  What better opportunity is there to find a new piece of artwork to display in your Albemarle Plantation home?  You home is surrounded by the beauty of Coastal NC on the outside, why not bring that majesty inside too?!

Did you know that April is North Carolina Beer Month?  No?  Well, now that you do, we can all agree that it calls for a celebration!  The Edenton State Historic Site will be introducing the first annual Brews and Q’s at the James Iredell property!  With historic beer brewing demonstrations and beer tastings from local breweries as well as food and entertainment, it’s an event you won’t want to miss!

Whether you want to stay in your very own backyard or venture out into surrounding cities, there is never a dull moment to be had around Albemarle Plantation!
