Don’t miss the final professional development program for 2008 presented by Danny Key. Key is the director of the Wingate University Bookstore, past president of the College Stores Association of North Carolina, and the 2008 recipient of the Aspen Award presented by the National Association of College Stores to recognize a collegiate retailer who has gone beyond the call of duty to make contributions to the professional development of others.

Artisan Green Salads will be followed by Pan Roasted Local Organic Chicken Supreme, Cold Smoked and Pan-Seared Atlantic Salmon, or Roasted Mushroom Ravioli for the main course, and Flourless Chocolate Cake or Warm Apple and Frangipane Tart for dessert.
