Our studios are physically located in Manteo/Roanoke Island, but the
coverage is ALL of OBX and Elizabeth City. So for clients and events
we are up and down the bypass.

Welcome Mark!

You are close enough to be a Ratpacker now...even though most of us are in VA..we have a few misplaced ones in Moyock, NC (which is at the OTHER end of OBX).

Next time we are down that way, we'll be sure to look you up!


Julie!

constantly up that way as well.

I just moved to Newport, and work in Morehead City. We have family in this area, up to Beaufort. And one of my sisters-in-law grew up on Harkers Island.

Have you come to any of the local vette events? Twin Rivers Corvette Club calls New Bern home, and meets there once a month. But, I like to attend the monthly cruise in at Hooters.

Then again, who wouldn't like to spend the afternoon at the Morehead Hooters?
