The Nansemond-Suffolk Academy 2007 “Escape to the Islands” was truly a tropical delight. The theme, “Escape to the Islands,” set the tone for a fun-filled evening of island flair, superior bidding, delicious island hors d’oeuvres and fabulous auction items. The Auction Committee was delighted by the positive response from area businesses and NSA patrons and their willingness to support this fundraising effort. All the hard work and generosity paid off as NSA raised $60,000.

This tremendous effort was tri-chaired by Tonya Bangley, Lynda Stielow and Pam Wentz, who worked along side a large group of talented and devoted committee members. The volunteers gathered together to collect wonderful items and to plan the main event. Their hours and hours of hard work and dedication are very much appreciated! Proceeds from the NSA Auction will benefit Faculty Development, the Performing Arts Program, the Athletic Program and the Endowment Fund.

Consider volunteering for one of NSA’s special events. It gives you the opportunity to work toward our common goal, making NSA the best it can be, and you will meet other devoted and talented Saints!
