The Dovetail Update:
An update from the Presbyterian Hospital School of Nursing Alumni at Presbyterian Medical Center

Dear Alumni,

I hope this finds you safe and healthy! 2020 was an extraordinary and noteworthy year that brought us many challenges navigating the circumstances of a global pandemic. As we move into 2021, we hope you’ve been able to reflect on what’s most important to you. I always try to find the blessing in everything, translating difficult situations into a memorable moment for myself as well as my children.

As we look toward this year and what may come, we have decided, for the safety of all our alumni, to cancel Homecoming in September 2021. We want to ensure all our members are safe and healthy as we move forward. We encourage you to stay connected through our Facebook page for the Presbyterian Hospital School of Nursing Alumni Association. I could not be prouder of this group and the way our lives are touched by the connections we have made over the years. I love hearing all the stories from years past that spark nostalgia.

While I am disappointed, we will miss our event this fall, we have already begun planning for Homecoming 2022. Homecoming has always been a time and place to connect through conversations and laughter that brightens the day we get together. Things that always help me to remember the good days and time at Homecoming are all the memorabilia we purchased. Not only is it showing our pride for our school, but it also helps us to continue to send everyone a copy of our newsletter, The Dovetail, as well as all the funding that goes into providing students with scholarships to further their education.

We hope that you will continue your support of these critical alumni projects this year by making a gift to the White Rose Nursing Education Endowed Fund at the Novant Health Presbyterian Medical Foundation. All contributions are always appreciated!

Thank you for your support and stay strong!
