"They bring with them energy and enthusiasm for Central Carolina Community College and support its mission to provide exceptional education to its service areas. All five will be great ambassadors for the college and the Foundation, spreading word in their local communities of the good work that is coming from CCCC."

The new members represent the three counties in the college's service area: Chatham, Harnett and Lee. Joining the board were Mark Eason, of Dunn, Margaret de St. Aubin, of Siler City, Donna "Lou" Byrd, of Pittsboro, Travis Bailey, of Angier, and Charlie Welborn, of Sanford.
