VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA
MAY 2018

We welcomed members of our Wesleyan Society to campus for a special reception in April. We gathered in the Greer Environmental Sciences Center to say "thank you" for a busy and wonderful year at Âé¶¹´«Ã½rtb --- a year that Wesleyan Society members helped to make possible through their generous gifts to our Excellence Fund. It was a wonderful opportunity for Annie and me to express our gratitude to supporters like Trustees Emeriti George Birdsong and Joan Brock (center), who have been instrumental in the life of the institution.  Learn more about the Wesleyan Society and become a member at www.vwu.edu/giving
