Creedmoor tourist information
Creedmoor is located in Dutchville township in southern Granville County. Granville County was voted in 1996 by Money Magazine as one of the best places to live in the nation. It borders the Raleigh-Durham Metropolitan Area. Creedmoor is about 20 minutes from Raleigh, the capital city and 15 minutes from Durham, the City of Medicine. Raleigh Durham International Airport is only 25 miles away. Oxford, the county seat of Granville County, is only 15 minutes away.
Our climate allows year-round outdoor activity. A picnic at Lake Rogers, a softball game or a round of tennis are only a few options. The well established volunteer organizations, and community based schools guarantee a year of special events. The yearly activities start with an Easter Egg Hunt at Lake Rogers picnic area the Saturday proceeding Good Friday. On the fourth of July there is a picnic at Lake Rogers with a cake baking contest and other entertainment. The Creedmoor Music Festival is held in September with old fashioned gospel music among other activities. On the second Saturday in October the Volunteer Fire Department has a fund raiser, a parade with surrounding communities participating along with bands from area high schools marching. A supper is held after the parade at the South Granville High School cafeteria with a menu of brunswick stew and barbecue served the old fashioned way by the Ladies Auxiliary of the Fire Department. The Christmas parade and the lighting of the city Christmas tree usually takes place on the first Saturday in December.
The people of this city work hard to make a balanced life and blend the old with the new. This blending is exemplified by the updating of services and buildings needed to serve the present population.
