It brings us great pleasure to introduce the Senator Bob Martin Eastern Agricultural Center. The Center is conveniently located in the eastern coastal plains of beautiful North Carolina, at Exit 512 of four-lane U.S. 64.
This is a state of the art, multi-facet facility that can be utilized by all. We have completed two phases of the three-phase master plan on a 168-acre site. The coliseum is over 100,000 square feet, which is heated and ventilated. This includes approximately 10,000 square feet of vending concourse. It also boasts a 150’ x 300' arena with permanent seating for 2286. In addition, there is a fully enclosed 75’ x 125’ paddock with an attached 120’ x 240’ covered arena, two outdoor 120’ x 240’ practice rings and three lunging rings. Our four barns have 304 permanent stalls with 14 wash bays supplied by hot and cold water. We also have the ability to house 60 portable stalls under the permanent roofing of our covered ring aprons.
The newly constructed East Building is capable of hosting an additional 134 stalls or serving as an indoor riding arena.
At the present time, we have 100 RV sites with water, electricity and a 4-station waste disposal site. In addition, we offer a 10,380 square foot Meeting Center Exposition Hall that is climate controlled and adaptable for your needs.
We would like to invite you to come tour our facility at your earliest convenience.
