Social News – Scarlet vs Blue: Who’s Gonna Win?

It’s that time of year again, dear Alumni – that time when the Actives think they have what it takes to steal that trophy away from the Alumni.  It’s the annual Scarlet vs. Blue softball game on Sunday, April 13, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. at the USF Riverfront Park.  Looking back, one can see that the Alumni have had quite the winning streak:

Scarlet v Blue

Alumni – 4 / Chapter – 0

However, if we aren’t careful, this could be the Chapter’s year!  With an ever growing Chapter and an even stronger determination on their part to show what they are made of, the Alumni can’t get over-confident!

So make plans now to come out to the park on Sunday, April 13th to show your support from your fellow Alumni – or, even better, pick up a bat and glove and join the fun!  All skill levels are welcome.  Bring the whole family, as there will be plenty of fun for spouses/significant others and kids, too.

The game will start promptly at 10:30 a.m. and will be followed by a picnic provided by the Chapter.  This year, the DZAA will be selling t-shirts specifically for the event, and a pre-order form will be coming soon.  All Alumni who have paid their 2013 dues will receive a free t-shirt!

And lest you forget, during the picnic, we will be holding our first annual Rent-A-Chi auction to help raise money for the DZAA Housing Fund.

This is definitely going to be an event to be remembered, so don’t miss out!  For more information, check out the website at http://usfchiphialumni.com/events/scarlet-blue-classic-softball-game/

Dress for the event is business casual, so there’s no need to break out the suit or rent a tux!

Social News – It’s Third Thursday Time!

It’s that time again!  Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past year, then you know that on the Third Thursday of every month, the Brothers of the Delta Zeta Alumni Association get together to celebrate life, reminisce about the old days, share some good times, and have a drink or two.  And this Thursday, February 20th is no exception.
