Cary-Page Rotarians enjoyed a private tour of the North Carolina Governor’s Mansion, graciously led by former First Lady Kristin Cooper and her Chief of Staff, Greg Moore. The experience was both educational and inspiring, highlighting the mansion’s history, its beautiful interior, and the perfectly manicured gardens. One highlight was seeing a North Carolina loblolly pine grown from seeds that journeyed around the Moon on the Artemis I mission in 2022 and were presented to to Governor Roy Cooper by NASA astronaut and NC native Christina Koch.
Thank you Liz LaBelle for coordinating! It was truly a remarkable visit that we all thoroughly enjoyed!
