Rocky Mount Employees Enjoy Tailgate Lunch

The Edgecombe Community College Foundation treated college employees on the Rocky Mount campus to a tailgate lunch this week for their support of the Foundation’s annual Campus Giving Campaign. Held in the fall, the campaign is a friendly competition between employees based on the Rocky Mount and Tarboro campuses. The campus with the highest percentage of employees donating receives a tailgate lunch. Sixty percent of Rocky Mount employees donated to the campaign, besting Tarboro employees by 11 percent. The Campus Giving Campaign raised $13,500 to support the work of the ECC Foundation. Shown at the lunch are Jean Bailey, president of the ECC Foundation Board of Directors who graciously helped serve employees, and Tony Rook, dean of students and director of the Rocky Mount campus.
