Hello Fam and Friends out there -
Ok, Lisa, we heard ya... I have one note to mention, but no pictures. Booo.
On Sunday, The Eastern NC Saint Mary's Alumnae Club (not official, but we are working on it) had our first event. We honored 3 current students of SMC and wished them well as they prepare to head back to school. The whole state of NC has 5 students, 3 students (1 JR, 2 SR) live in the Triangle Area.
I am a part of the board, appointed as the communications director. I was in charge of getting out the evite (email invitation) to all the email addresses of alum in our area. We have about 100 alum, and 25 RSVP yes, about 16 came. The board was very happy and enthusiastic about our turn out. The current students walked away with a $15 gift card to the bookstore as gift from us.
My highlights from the brunch was meeting another psychology major from '04. Meeting an alum that coordinates CCD classes for elementary students in Chapel Hill. And watching two alumnae from '88 reconnect after not seeing each other since graduation day.
The board is currently getting our by law passed, hosting a Founder's Day event, and collecting dues to officially become a club. Our next event will be our Founder's Day event. The board hopes to host a potluck and a mass at our treasurers home in October.

Hello! Mom posted some SoHa pics and I posted a note about a SMC event. More posts to come!
Congrats on getting a SMC club going! From my experience, there is such a tie to the ND/SMC community. Keep it up!
