Kinston has its roots on the banks of the Neuse River, an integral body of water that remains as stalwart and fixed in its resolve as the citizens of Kinston and Lenoir County. Once a bustling hub of tobacco barons and textile workers, Lenoir County has since redefined itself as a mecca for artists, foodies, and history buffs. Rotaract of Lenoir County pledges itself to continuing the legacy of the community we love, embracing our past, but keeping our eyes on the future.
