Tour the Pottery Capital of the United States with Out & About
As part of our back to school issue, we would like to highlight a fun
idea for a stress-free, end of summer fling. This is a smart and easy way to "run away from home " and have a great time with some of your friends or your family. Out of the Ordinary.. Out and About Tours provides a unique "spin " on shopping in Seagrove by Lisa Jackson Roger Brittingham grew up in the Seagrove area and his roots gave him an understanding of both the history and cultural mix found among the people who live in this small town. His career background began as a graphic artist, but in 1998, Brittingham's first idea for Out and About Tours came as a result of a need to assist visitors in finding their way around the area in search of pottery .One of the biggest scheduled events that takes place in Seagrove is the Pottery Festival. This attraction draws crowds of approximately 20,000 or more people, all wanting to locate their shops of special interests. Although maps and guides are provided for visitors with the location of the pottery shops, they do not list the different styles that are available by the various potters. With over 100 pottery shops found within a 20 mile radius, Out and About Tours provides a simple solution to what can be an overwhelming dilemma. Brittingham has educated himself in every aspect of the pottery business and has learned the importance of providing a friendly, homespun service. The Out and About Tour company offers a variety of guided tours to choose from, in addition to custom tours that will accommodate special interests from visitors. As part of the tour package, everyone has the opportunity to sample home-baked goodies that Roger's wife Julie has prepared herself The rising popularity of Brittingham's Out and About Tours is found in articles highlighted in both Our State magazine and the Washington Post. Out-of-town visitors in search of traditional to contemporary pottery have made the small community of Seagrove a tourist attraction. If you're planning a fun-filled excursion for a group of people or simply you and your spouse, we suggest Out and About Tours. Brittingham's service provides a stress- free day trip that encourages the customer to relax and enjoy a unique experience in shopping Seagrove's well known pottery shops. Tours are available every day except Sunday. For more information call (910) 428-8904 or visit www.clayseeker.com. |
