Duplin Winery with the Triangle Alumnae Chapter
Last Saturday, the Port City Alumnae and Triangle Alumnae Chapters met in Rose Hill, NC for a combined event: we started with some wine tasting (who knew we could have such varying tastes!!) and then had a wonderful late lunch at the Bistro Restaurant.
Just 3 boxes of wine between 12 of us :)
Blurry selfie with Shelley F.!

Had such a great time with our Triangle sisters… can’t wait to have another combined event soon!!

Arthritis Walk News
Bummer news: The Wilmington Arthritis Walk will NOT be held this year due to a national directive to have all walks held in May. Since May is too close to plan an entire walk event, they have decided to skip this year. Hopefully the Arthritis Foundation will make the decision to hold a walk in Wilmington next May.
If you would like to participate in a walk this year, there is the Triangle Arthritis Walk on May 10th, and there is always the festive Raleigh Jingle Bell Run on December 6th!
I have created a team for the Triangle Arthritis Walk already here. Join us in walking or donate to support our team and philanthropy! See more info below.

2013 Wilmington Arthritis Walk
Sunday, October 27th was this year’s Arthritis Walk. We had such a great AOII turnout! Unofficially, our team had 52 members and raised $1,929 for Arthritis Research!! A large group of Zeta Psi sisters from ECU came to join the Port City Chapter in our “AOII Goes Blue for Arthritis” event.
Here are a few highlights from the day!
Setting up, blowing up balloons, and looking awesome in our AOII Goes Blue shirts!!
Volunteering!
AOII/Zeta Psi alumna sister Elizabeth was the 2013 Wilmington honoree!! She suffers from RA.
AOII Love!!!
Thanks to everyone who made it this year, whether you walked or volunteered, as part of the planning committee, we really appreciate it. Can’t wait to do it all again next year!!

Cathy
