Pocahontas County
If you know Pocahontas County, you know the roads—learning how to ease through the curves, read the land, and trust the journey will get you where you need to go.
The land shapes more than just the roads. It shapes the way people look out for each other, the way stories travel between small towns, and the way a place can leave its mark on you. The Greenbrier River traces the county’s spine, and the cold at Snowshoe can take your breath away—but never as much as the sight of a clear night sky at Green Bank, where they’re working to unlock the mysteries of the universe.
Through scholarships and grants, we are proud to support the people and places that make Pocahontas County what it is. Whether investing in students, strengthening local nonprofits, or supporting community initiatives, we believe in keeping this place moving—curves, hills, and all.
Some roads take you home. Let’s invest in what makes Pocahontas County special.
