FIRST LEGO League Outreach
If you are a LEGO League team contacting us about a talk, tour, or other engagement, please review the following information.
The North Carolina Office of State Archaeology (OSA) consists of five locations:
- Main Office - Raleigh
- Research Center - Raleigh
- Western Office - Asheville
- Conservation Lab - Greenville
- Underwater Archaeology Branch - Kure Beach
For zoom calls, email: archaeology@dncr.nc.gov
For a tour of the Research Center, email: osa.curation@dncr.nc.gov
For a tour of the Conservation Lab, email: QAR@dncr.nc.gov
In your email, please include the number of anticipated participants and a range of dates you would be available to meet with an archaeologist.
While we will make every effort to accommodate LEGO League teams at one of our offices, or with one of our colleagues in another state department, we may not be able to fulfill every request and we cannot guarantee you will be paired with the archaeologist for your county. We are not able to accommodate events after hours, on weekends, or that require travel.
