N.C. College Democrats Host 2008 Winter Reception Honoring Former State Representative Wayne Goodwin

The North Carolina Federation of College Democrats is proud to be hosting its first ever Winter Reception following the N.C. Democratic Party’s State Executive Committee meeting in Hamlet, North Carolina on January 26th, 2008. The event will be held at the historic Hamlet Train Depot and will honor former State Representative Wayne Goodwin.

This is the first fundraiser of its kind held by the Federation. The group is asking for sponsorships beginning at the $100 dollar level. All proceeds will benefit the Federation and its various projects throughout the state. The event is being held in the eighth congressional district, one of the districts Democrats are focusing heavily on for the 2008 elections.

Wayne Goodwin, the first-ever honoree of the reception is a Democratic Party activist and former state legislator. In a letter to the Federation Goodwin said of the reception: “As a past Vice President of the College Federation myself (1988-89), as well as both a past YDNC President (1995-1997) and State Representative (1997-2005) still very active in NCDP politics, your administration's decision to pursue this means a great deal to me.”

The reception begins immediately following the adjournment of the State Executive Committee Meeting. Heavy hors d’oeuvres will be served. The cost is $15.

I can't think of a nicer guy to honor!

Thanks, College Dems.

Got any links to share . . . in case someone wants to donate a few bucks?

Agreed...

We couldn't agree more, he is very deserving of this honor!

Wayne Goodwin is MOST deserving!

Kudos to NCFCD for honoring Wayne Goodwin. Wayne is one of the greatest Democrats I know. He is full of passion, determination, and is a true party faithful. Wayne is a great advocate of people and represents the Democratic Party well.
I will look forward to the reception in Hamlet. Congrats, Wayne! You are great!

Thank you, all ... I don't know what to say!

Except (1) thank you from the bottom of my heart! ... and (2) let's help our College Democrats all we can by turning folks out in BIG numbers for this fundraising reception on Jan 26th, especially since our College Dems are taking the lead in coordinating the Lt. Governor candidate debates. It would be a terrific tribute to our College Dems and their role in the Democratic Party if BlueNC'ers turned out in full force for this reception. Please spread the word!

Meanwhile, according to the materials I received today, folks are asked to RSVP for the College Fed reception by calling 919-749-0492 or emailing doug.massengill@gmail.com. Tickets start at $15 each, and sponsorships start at $250.

Now back to all nonstop Iowa caucuses coverage!

I agree that he is deserving of such an honor.

Does anyone know if he is planning on running for office next year?

I think I too will attend.
