NORWICH – The Norwich branch of Morrisville State College will hold its 4th annual Holiday Open House from 5 to 7 p.m. on Wednesday in Roger Follett Hall, 20 Conkey Ave., adjacent to the Eaton Center.

The yearly event will feature a wide variety of hors d’oeuvres from a number of local eateries, including Garf’s Deli, Tuller Catering, Alambria Springs Farms and the La Maison Blanche French Bakery, according to Morrisville State College Norwich Campus Dean Marsha Cornelius who, added entertainment for the Holiday Open House will be provided by the Norwich High School Jazz Band. Dunkin Donuts will provide coffee and donuts for the event.

Cornelius said the jazz ensemble was tapped to perform in an effort to draw more public attention to the local college and the services and programs it provides. In addition, she reported that those in attendance will have an opportunity to win an iPad or Kindle if they visit any table showcasing a program they may be interested in.

“The high school jazz band is such a popular group with local residents that it made sense to bring them to our open house for the first time this year,” stated Cornelius. “We’re really hoping to see a large turnout and this was the perfect way to try and make that happen.”
