Local supporters of the Wake Forest Boys
& Girls Club and there are many are
urged to purchase tickets now for the
Steak & Steak Dinner Tuesday, March 27.
The keynote speaker will be
Dewayne Washington, who played football
at Northern Durham High School and N.C.
State and was then drafted by the
Minnesota Vikings.
Washington was a defensive
back in the NFL for 13 years with the
Vikings, the Pittsburgh Steelers and the
Kansas City Chiefs.
He is back in the Durham
area, club director Hugh McLean said,
and interested in working with youth in
the area because he attended the Durham
Boys & Girls Club.
Its a cool event, McLean
said of the dinner, because Washington
will be the only adult speaker. Instead,
the featured speakers will be the young
people, the club members, who will
describe seven or eight of the programs.
The dinner will begin at 6
p.m. at the club at 325 S. Wingate St.
Tickets are $15 for an individual, $25
for a couple. Checks should be made
payable to the club. |
