Ware Creek, North Carolina has held a special place in the heart of many of its people for many generations. Ware Creek was the beginning for something great in the fabric of American History. Many Blacks owe their very right to hirgher education to the institution began by Julius Rosenwald and Booker T. Washington. Ware Creek is aware of this and resolute on maintaining and sharing this valuable peace of the African American Experience in North Carolina.
