Vance-Granville Community College will hold a special program celebrating the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday on Tuesday, Jan. 17, 2012 at 11 a.m. in the Civic Center on VGCC’s Main Campus in Vance County.
For the third year in a row, the program will feature several VGCC students delivering speeches on the legacy of Dr. King. This year’s theme is: “I’m living the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.” A panel of judges will award cash prizes for the best speeches.
Another highlight of the program will be inspirational music, provided by a choir consisting of VGCC students, faculty and staff.
The celebration is free and open to the public. Attendees are encouraged to bring a non-perishable food item to be donated to area citizens in need. All attendees who donate a food item will be eligible to win door prizes.
