Commuity Service Day
August 12th, 2006
The 2006 Day of service was held on Saturday, August 12, 2006, and was a great success. Incoming first year and returning second year students spent half a day volunteering together at four community service sites in the Triangle area. Overall, this was a wonderful opportunity for the students to meet and work together to give something back to the community. Thanks to all who made the day such a success!
