Tucker's Grove Camp Meeting Ground is a historic African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church camp meeting ground located near Iron Station, Lincoln County, North Carolina.
African American families in the Lincoln County area have come together for spiritual renewal and fellowship at camp meeting since after slavery ended.
During the early days, people would walk to the campground, or arrive by horse and buggy and bring all of the essentials needed to camp out on the grounds.
This monument stands as a visual reminder of the rick, longstanding tradition of camp meeting at Tucker's Grove.
Since 2012, the host pastor has led a procession of Board of Trustee members and Camp Meeting participants around the grounds as he sprinkles Holy Water and old gospel hymns are sung.
The blessing of the grounds occurs on the Friday evening before the official start of Camp Meeting.
The original trustees were: Wesley Abernathy, Henry Brevard, Milton Monday, and Alexander McLean.
