Nu Chapter members met at Hip Hip hooWray in Conover for the 2025 Fall Social. Hip Hip hooWray offers a relaxing experience in a family-friendly atmosphere where guests of all ages enjoy painting and learning.
Members each selected a design option of their choice, with fall, Thanksgiving, and Christmas designs being very popular. Hip Hip hooWray provided all supplies, including various colors of paint, brushes, and aprons (in case you are a messy painter). When the guest completed her project, the event staff worked their magic to add ribbons, bows, glitter, and personalization.
This event was a fun time for Nu members to socialize and get to know each other in a different setting. Everyone had a great time and took home a beautiful new creation to hang in their home.
Nu Taste & Talk 2025
The 2025 Nu Chapter Taste & Talk fundraiser was held on September 27, 2025, at First Methodist Church in Conover. The fourth annual event welcomed guests from across Catawba County.
Nu members submitted recipes that were compiled into a cookbook. Nu Chapter chefs prepared their recipe, and guests got a "taste" of each delicious dish. After everyone had a taste, guests were invited to return for another taste of their favorites. Each guest also received a copy of the annual cookbook so that they could prepare the dishes at home.
Another popular feature of the Taste & Talk was the silent auction baskets. Themed baskets ranged from quilting items, fall kitchen items, spa treatments, Christmas fun, and much more. The bidding was competitive. Guests were excited to win the final bid, and Nu Chapter raised extra money for the fundraiser.
Bennett Funeral Service of Newton and Conover is a community supporter of the Taste & Talk. They provided a donation to Nu Chapter to cover the cost of printing the cookbooks. They are a valued partner in the chapter's ongoing work in Catawba County.
Proceeds from the fundraiser will provide literacy and numeracy grants for area teachers and will fund leadership training for Nu Chapter. In addition, Nu Chapter supports beginning teachers and partners with Safe Harbor in Hickory, a Christ-centered community that is dedicated to helping women rebuild, renew, and recover.
Comments such as, "I had some of the best food ever," or "I'll be back next year," point to a successful event. Nu Chapter thanks the community for their support as we continue to work to support area educators and promote excellence in education.
