Join us in the Cherry Festival parade on July 11!

cherry fest parade1Saturday, July 11 NMC will be marching down the parade route in the National Cherry Festival’s Cherry Royale Parade. The presentation will be led by President Nelson, followed by Chip the faux buffalo from the NMC Barbecue and then our float with folks handing out Hawk Owl temporary tattoos to the parade goers! And of course, the NMC entry would not be complete without the ever-popular brat truck which is staffed by the wonderful folks at the Hagerty Center who will hand out brats all the way down the parade route.

Would you like to volunteer to help hand out brats or Hawk Owl tattoos? Call Anne Varga at 995-1020 or email her at avarga@nmc.edu if you would like to be a part of a great day! All volunteers will receive a Hawk Owl t-shirt to wear in the parade and keep as a souvenir! (more…)

One pair of Arnold Line ferry tickets available for purchase to support three maritime groups

arnold_2450The Arnold Line has generously donated 4 adult tickets to the Captain’s Dinner Fundraiser (which supports 3 student groups:  Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers, The Sailing Club and Women on the Water).  Unfortunately we received them after the dinner took place.  Perhaps someone in the NMC community might be interested in purchasing them!  The value of each adult ticket is $18.  So, for a set of two, you can purchase for $30 ($6 discount).  They are valid until October 31, 2015.  To purchase please email Judy Druskovich (Jdruskovich@nmc.edu).  Judy will let you know if you are the first to respond.
