6th Annual Crab Feed Success!

On March 29, 2008 Albers held their 6th Annual Crab Feed and it was better than ever. Over 300 people attended and all were able to enjoy the art tour, auction, crab dinner and the jazz lounge. With everyone's participation we were able to raise $22,000 for student scholarships! A special thanks goes out to Heather Hudson and Jason McGill the co-chairs as well as the entire Albers Alumni Board for all their hard work, they really made this event fantastic. Thank you to all who attended and hope to see you at the 7th Annual Crab Feed next March.
