Good morning, Raleigh. Erin + Trevor here. 👋 Like (checks notes) most of you, our team has spent the past several months working from home. While we’re staying busy with work, and love bringing you the best news from around the Triangle, today we thought we’d just have a little fun.

To help raise everyone’s socially-distanced spirits — and because we’re among the best college towns in America — we’re celebrating National College Colors Day.

Wear your colors loud and proud. 📣 Calling all students (of any grade), alumni, teachers + fans... We want to see your smiling faces + show support for all our local (10+) local colleges and universities. Participating is easy:

  1. Don your favorite paraphernalia — think team shirts, pompoms, face paint, whatever you’re feeling.
  2. Take a photo and post it to social media.
  3. Be sure to tag whichever local college you’re reppin’ then tag us #raltoday #ralcollegecolors, then follow our stories throughout the day to see who else is celebrating your team.
