Social News – April’s 30th Anniversary Celebration Events

For the month of April, Third Thursday is taking a back-seat to Second Friday.  To coincide with the Delta Zeta 30th Anniversary Celebration, the DZAA will be hosting its monthly cocktail hour on Friday, April 11th at The Pub, located at 2223 North West Shore Boulevard, Tampa, Florida  33607 (http://www.experiencethepub.com/tampa-bay).  As with our regular Third TAS_THEPUB021611_162614a_8colThursdays, we will provide some appetizers, but, of course, you are more than welcome to order food and drinks from the menu.  The Pub even offers a “Pour Your Own Beer” bar in the upstairs loft, where our event will take place.  Guests/spouses/significant others are more than welcome to join in on the fun!  If you are coming into town for the 30th anniversary celebration of the Delta Zeta Alumni Association, you won’t want to miss out on this opening night event!

Of course, Saturday, April 12th will be the Spring meeting of the Delta Zeta Alumni Association in the afternoon, with the 30th Anniversary Banquet to be held that evening.

And don’t forget that Sunday, April 13th DSCN3714is the annual Scarlet vs. Blue / Actives vs. Alumni classic softball game where the Alumni will remind the Actives the reason why the DZAA has held on to that trophy for so long.  The game will be held at the USF Riverfront Park on East Fletcher Avenue in Tampa.  We will meet there at 10:00 a.m., and the game will start promptly at 10:30 a.m.  After the Alumni win the game, there will be a picnic with food provided by the Actives, during which, the DZAA will host its first Rent-A-Chi fundraiser to help raise money for the Housing Fund.

Next weekend (April 11th – April 13th) is going to be a huge Delta Zeta celebration that you won’t want to miss out on!  Make your plans now, and we hope to see you there!

It’s hard to believe it’s already been a year since the new Officers were installed and new life was breathed into the DZAA, but it’s that time of year again!  The bi-annual General Meeting of the Delta Zeta Alumni Association will be held:

USF Marshal Student Center, Room TBA
Saturday, April 12th at 11:00 AM

The meeting will include reports from the DZAA Officers, as well as a discussion on plans for the upcoming year.  All Alumni who have paid their dues will be eligible to vote on issues at the meeting.  This is your opportunity to have a say in what is happening in YOUR Alumni Association.

The meeting is anticipated to last approximately one hour, and immediately following the meeting, all are invited to join us for lunch at Beef O’Brady’s.

So come out and take an active part in the DZAA, as we take the Association to bigger and better things in 2014!
