Lol o wow. I love competing in pageants, but I don't think I would ever join a sorority that was all about pageants!

that's.... special!

Their membership benefits include:

Quote:
Alpha Chi Pi Member Certificate

Alpha Chi Pi Pledge/Sorority Pin

A stylish Alpha Chi Pi sports shirt

An Alpha Chi Pi Tote Bag with embroidered logo

Access to Members Only Alpha Chi Pi Message Board and Email Group
where you can download photos and post messages to other members

A quarterly e-letter where members are Contributing Authors

Your name, photo and most recent title (queen or director) on the Sorority Composite page of our website and in our annual membership directory

Exclusive ability to purchase new Alpha Chi Pi shirts, jewelry, and other novelty items at our online store at www.Royal-Icing.Com .

Invitation to attend occasional special receptions and/or retreats

Opportunity to apply for college scholarships
Of those, the only useful benefit is the opportunity to apply for scholarships.... and you can apply for scholarships in a regular sorority, or even if you are not Greek at all.

super fun but not worth the $125 fee imho!!!

It's called a sorority, but I think it fits better under society or honorary. The benefits and stuff remind me more of those type of groups.

Thumbs down

I'm sorry, but a lot of these "pageants" are businesses (especially for children. I'm not talking about Miss USA/Miss America and their qualifying pageants). This isn't a real sorority. It's just another pageant dressed up to look like a sorority. Looks like the owners of the Royal Icing jewelry business want to expand into pageants and decided to name it Alpha Chi Pi.

Click on "members" and take a look at the charter members. Some of those girls look all of 5 or 6 years old.

According to the website for Scarborough Consulting, the owner founded the American Coed (but it's only for girls) Pageant System. I think it was his way of getting more business....
