CNPA has been divided into 10 regional groups covering North and South Carolina. In North Carolina the six regions are Asheville, Charlotte, Foothills (Boone/Lenoir), Outer Banks, Triad (Greensboro, Highpoint, Winston-Salem), and the Triangle area (Raleigh/Durham). In South Carolina there are four regions, Upstate (Greenville/Spartanburg), the Midlands (Columbia/Aiken/Chesterfield), Myrtle Beach, and Charleston. Members are assigned to a region based on where they live. Note that some regions span state lines (Charlotte & Myrtle Beach). Any CNPA member may attend any outing or meeting offered in any region. CNPA has members in at least 15 states outside of the Carolinas and in Canada.
