We are thrilled to announce that Mannheim Steamroller will bring their highly-acclaimed orchestra concert Fresh Aire to Christopher Newport University’s Ferguson Center for the Arts on Thursday, April 12, 2007.

Throughout their career they have been awarded 16 gold records, 7 platinum records and 4 multi-platinum records.

Dear Fellow CNU Alumni Society Supporter:
Have you made your New Year’s Resolutions yet?
We would like to ask that you make a special resolution for CNU Alumni Society.
This one won’t cost you a penny, but can
help raise funds for CNU Alumni Society!
Last year we added a travel website for our supporters that gives money back to CNU Alumni Society every time travel is booked on the site. We appreciate those of you who have used this service and put some “fun” in your fundraising, but we can do so much more! If you have not yet tried our travel site we are asking, this year when you are planning to travel, use our travel website whenever possible.
Our travel site is at www.CNUtravel.com
and is just like having our own Expedia®
Everything you need is right here. You get access to the same airlines, hotels and rental car companies, cruises and vacation packages you find on all the other major travel websites, and, best of all…
you get some of the lowest
travel prices on the internet!
Plus, any time you book a flight, a hotel, a vacation for your family, a weekend getaway, a cruise…
CNU Alumni Society will receive 40% of the travel commissions…
commissions that help our organization and our cause.
Maybe you are planning a trip right now, or maybe you would just like to daydream about a winter vacation to a tropical paradise. Either way, why not take the CNU Alumni Society travel website for a “test drive”.
Our travel site is at:
www.CNUtravel.com
Oh, and one more thing, please bookmark our new website. And remember to use it as much as possible this year when you travel.Thanks for your commitment to CNU Alumni Society and for trying out our travel service at http://www.cnutravel.com/. Alumni Magazine
