Wait List

We've started a wait list for those interested in joining us on our visit to Cape Fear Botanical Garden. If you'd like to be placed on the wait list, please contact Chris Glenn at chris_glenn@ncsu.edu. We may get an extra van if enough people express an interest in going.

A visit to Cape Fear Botanical Garden on November 9 ends our fall 2016 day-trip series. Along with a guided tour, we will also be able to view the larger-than-life Lego sculptures made by California artist Sean Kenney, part of a Nature Connects: Art with LEGO Bricks Exhibit. Camellias and a project to help wounded soldiers are just two of the many intriguing features that are part of the Cape Fear Botanical Garden.
