BUIES CREEK - Chances are, if you’ve eaten food prepared on the cam-pus of Campbell University, you’ve met Larry Aldridge.
His relationship with his customers was a big factor in the honor Aldridge received this week -- Front Line Man-ager of the Year for Aramark’s Southeast Region. He was honored by University administration and his employees and co-workers at a small surprise get-together Thursday, where he received his award.
Aldridge, Campbell’s director of din-ing services, was selected by a commit-
tee Aramark leaders in the region who reviewed nominations from 50 college and universities in North and South Carolina.
“It’s an annual award, and Larry is (Campbell’s) first top front line manager in a very long time,” said Mary Thorn-ton, Aramark’s Regional Vice President. “He embodies what we’re looking for in a front line manager - he cares about his campus, his team and his customers, and he takes good care of them all.”

a CHaLLenge to ServeTo celebrate Campbell University’s
125th anniversary with a challenge to Campbell faculty, staff, alumni and students to complete 125,000 collective hours of service. The service initiative is the fruit of an institution whose foun-dation was service to others. Campbell University began as a beacon of educa-tion in Harnett County and remains so as it continues to excel in the areas of faith, learning and service.
We embark upon this 125,000 hour challenge not to brag but because it is who we are. The CU community represents thousands of hours of time spent with Sunday School classes, small groups, civic organizations, non-profit agencies, friends and family serving our neighbors. We want to celebrate this. We take on this challenge of complet-ing these hours because we recognize the needs around us and our calling to serve in order to bring healing to the hurting and bring freedom to the oppressed. We take on this challenge because there are still persons living in poverty, hungry children, oppressed people groups and injustice in the world.
Upon serving one’s community, the volunteer should submit his or her hours to the online record of service located the anniversary web page and the Campus Ministry web page.
