Wilmington Area Senior Sendoff has more than 100 participants
    The Port City chapter hosted the 11th annual  Senior Send-off on May 7th for Wilmington area students as a record crowd packed the library media room.  These students will be beginning their NCSU education this fall.
      Randy, Paige, Erin and a Caldwell Scholar from the Alumni Association office were the guest speakers.  All provided information on what to expect once the freshmen go to orientation and fielded questions on a broad range of topics concerning campus life in Raleigh.  Randy also provided insight on the incredible academic achievements by the incoming freshmen of the class of 2013.
    Shanna gave information on her experiences at NC State as well as the STAT program while Randy & Erin gave away prizes to students correctly answering NCSU trivia.  
    Students from New Hanover, Ashley, Laney, Cape Fear Academy and Hoggard were in attendance.
     
     Special thanks to Tom Cunningham for sponsoring the event and the Alumni Association staff for traveling from Raleigh, speaking with the students, and for organizing the event.
We look forward to hosting the 2010 event.
