Davidson Supporters Surpass Annual Fund Goal

Davidson alumni, parents and friends have demonstrated their belief in the importance of the college and its mission through record contributions to the college’s Annual Fund.

In closing the books recently on the 2009-10 fiscal year, Davidson fundraisers announced Annual Fund contributions of $10.776 million. Despite the gloomy national economy, that substantially surpassed the goal of $9.25 million, and set a new record for total gifts to the Annual Fund.

Moreover, a record 10,055 of Davidson’s 16,497 active alumni were donors, giving Davidson a 61 percent participation rate — the highest of any college or university in the nation this year. It also marks the eighth year in a row of contributions by 60 or more percent of alumni.

Good night, sleep tight -

July 2010 edition
JOANNE AHERN
Seniors Columnist

Sleep, like exercise and nutrition, is essential for good health and general well being. We always intend to get the job done, but more often than not, we just can’t get a good night’s sleep.

Oh, we use excuses like “now that I’m older, I don’t need as much sleep.” Or:

“I snore a lot but I don’t think that’s a problem.”

“I’ll catch up on my lost sleep by sleeping longer tomorrow.”

“My obesity, hypertension, diabetes and depression have nothing to do with my poor sleep quality.”

“I sleep during the day so it’s OK that I don’t sleep well at night.”

Semi-retired couple enjoy a good meal and lake living
MAYS

When Ansley and Walter Mays thought about retirement, they knew they wanted to move from Charlotte to be near water.

They thought about the beach, and then thought about the upkeep. That left Lake Wylie or Lake Norman.

“We said ‘So let’s just go ahead rather than wait’,” says Ansley Mays. “I guess we’ve always been water people, so finally we’re getting our dream.”

Blue Stone Harbor

Blue Stone Harbor is chock full of nautical names, a hallmark of some Lake Norman neighborhoods. Some communities get the names right, some wrong (America Cup in The Peninsula is one example of getting it wrong.) But in the case of Blue Stone Harbor, the street names show a genuine appreciation of yachting.
