Open house expo planned at Administration Building

The Virginian-Pilot

Dare County is planning an open house expo Friday at its new Administration Building with the theme "protecting our children."

Tours of the building will be from 2 to 6 p.m., and there will be exhibits showing programs and departments that are involved in protecting children.

There also will be a hurricane preparedness exhibit.

A special ribbon-cutting is scheduled for 5 p.m., when winners of the County Government Week Student Art Contest will be recognized.

Refreshments will be available.

The 43,098-square-foot building at the intersection of U.S. 64 and N.C. 343 next to the county's Justice Center houses several county departments and offices that had been scattered around Manteo. It cost just more than $13 million and opened for business in late March.
