For over a century, Shelter Neck has been a meeting place for Unitarian Universalists. Located in rural southeastern North Carolina, Shelter Neck originated as a school for children who otherwise would not have had access to education with broad cultural experiences.
     Over the years, the Universalist Convention of North Carolina, Inc. (UCONCI) has preserved the physical site as well as many of the experiential facets of the school.  Generations of Unitarian Universalist children have "grown up" at Shelter Neck, participating in camps and conferences, and giving of their time and energy to its well-being. Inter-generational activities and special conferences have expanded the experience. The one-time boarding school is still a place for "city" and "country," for adults and children, for learning and teaching, for sharing and fellowship.
      Shelter Neck UU Camp is a volunteer/user operated facility. It is located eight miles from I-40 and thirty miles from Wilmington NC and the Carolina Beaches. It is available for rental by UU Societies and related groups.
