Michael MeyerEastern North Carolina Regional Director
(Coastal Region) Executive Director (252) 764-7628 mike@emeraldowlproductions.com |

Mike brings his school counseling and fundraising experience to Emerald Owl Productions. As a school counselor, he oversaw a large charity event, very similar in design to our fundraising model. His events eventually began to raise $15,000-$18,000 profit each year at a middle school. This helped create the Emerald Owl Productions model that is profitable, fun, and memorable, while providing student-led opportunities.
Mike has been interested in helping great causes through events for a long time. After visiting a neighbor's haunted house when he was in the 2nd grade, Mike begged his parents to let him have a haunted house of his own the next year. A six year tradition began, eventually raising thousands of dollars for the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and attracting hundreds of people per year to walk through his parents house! Since 1984 as a 3rd grader, Mike has been planning events that are fun, bring people together, and give back to others. Mike is based in Emerald Isle.
