Phil & Margi's 50th Anniversary Weekend Celebration
Phil & Margi Wynn's 50th Anniversary party will take place near their home on the grounds of Albemarle Plantation along the Albemarle sound. The Plantation offers many things to see and do, all within walking distance. There is a beautiful marina with places to sit and relax and watch the activities and wildlife of the sound. They offer two restaurants, a tennis court, and outdoor pool, boating, and an award winning 18 hole golf course ranked as “One of the best 201 places to play in the U.S.” by Golf Digest. It is a perfect place to spend the weekend and catch up with family and friends. It is our hope that you will not only come for the party, but stay over night to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
