Longtime radio announcer for UNC sports Woody Durham is this week’s speaker for the Raleigh Sports Club.

From 1971 to his retirement in 2011, Woody Durham was the “Voice of the Tar Heels,” the radio play-by-play man for UNC. He will give a preview of his autobiography, A Tar Heel Voice, which takes the reader on a nostalgic stroll down memory lane.

You may purchase a copy of the book for $29 and Woody will arrive early, and stay after he speaks to sign the book for you. Cash, check, and all major credit cards will be accepted.

Jimbo Barnes, lacrosse player at Ravenscroft, will be honored as the Student Athlete of the Week.

The meetings emphasize friendship, fellowship, weekly door prizes, pick sheets, and great food. This is the 49th year of The Raleigh Sports Club.

The Raleigh Sports Club weekly Wednesday luncheon meetings are from 11:30 -1 p.m. at Highland United Methodist Church at 1901 Ridge Road in Raleigh. The Forks Cafeteria caters a Southern Buffet with lines opening at 11:30 a.m.

Member attendance fee is $15 while guests are $25. For more details go to www.raleighsportsclub.org.
