Crystal Coast Corks & Forks is a non-profit organization that highlights and supports the Crystal Coast's contributions to the culinary arts.

Our mission is to create experiences that celebrate, educate and promote the Crystal Coast's diverse offerings by providing an avenue for the community, visitors, and culinary and hospitality providers to share meaningful connections and engagement throughout the year.

Event proceeds support scholarships to the Culinary Arts program at Cateret Community College and other non-profit organizations that help those with food insecurity. 

Fish Against Addiction Speckled Trout Fishing Tournament is a nonprofit organization founded by the family and friends of Tyler Dees.

Not only is this tournament being held in Tyler's name, but in honor of those who have lost their battle with drugs/fentanyl toxicity and alcohol, those who are struggling with addiction and are in rehabilitation centers, and those who have overcome addiction.

We recognized after Tyler's passing that we wanted to help the community in Carteret County by providing support to our local treatment centers.

The organizations provide shelter, education, and support for men and women in Carteret County seeking recovery.
