Dear Friends,

The health and safety of all of our friends and supporters are a priority for us at LRSC. With the current health concerns throughout the country, we have made the difficult decision to cancel our friend-raising social event in Arizona for 2021. We have scheduled our 2022 event for March 4th at the Apache Wells Country Club in Mesa, AZ and look forward to seeing you again next year.

Your continued support is helping Lake Region State College put its slogan—We change lives!—into action. Changing lives for the better happens every day at LRSC. Thank you.
For more information, please contact the foundation office at 701-662-1560 or at lrsc.foundation@lrsc.edu.

Warm Regards,

Elonda Nord
