NMC BBQ Funds Set For Good Works
March 16, 2015
Nine projects will share $40,300 in funds from the 60th Northwestern Michigan College Barbecue – set for Sunday, May 17.
Every year, college employees submit proposals for barbecue funds, contingent on funds raised that day. A Barbecue Board, comprised of college employees and community volunteers, then makes the final selection. This year's recipients are:
- NMC traditional pow-wow
- Muti-parameter water quality sonde (probe)
- Student Success Center workspace
- Lean Champion flipped classroom equipment
- College for Kids scholarships
- Library laptop rental program
- ROV student design team tether
- Scholarship Open sponsorship
- Side scan sonor for Nautical Archaeology
About 10,000 people attend the annual picnic, raising more than $1.5 million for college programs and equipment over the years.
Tickets are $6 in advance and available here.
