In honor of the 10th anniversary of its registered nursing program, Paul D. Camp Community College plans a special celebration from 6 to 9 p.m. Feb. 6 at the Hilton Garden Inn and Suffolk Conference Center in Suffolk.

“This is going to be an exciting event where nursing alumni, current students, faculty, staff, donors and other business and community members can come together to recognize the success of this program and our students,” Vice President for Institutional Advancement Felicia Blow said.

All proceeds will be used to establish an endowed nursing scholarship in honor of Dr. Candace Rogers, who recently retired from PDCCC. Dr. Rogers got the nursing program up and running, and was instrumental in its continued success.

The reception will include heavy hors d’ouevres, music and a short program honoring staff and students. Suffolk native Dennis Vann, a graduate of the program and a Registered Nurse at Sentara Obici Hospital, will be the guest speaker.

Tickets are $35 per person.

PDCCC has graduated approximately 300 students from its RN Program.
