^^^ You better do it, SisterGreek! I encourage everyone to wear their letters at March of Dimes/Walk America. That's one event where I usually see a nice representation of Divine 9 working in the community doing a variety of tasks. It's always one of my favorite community events.
SisterGreek Joja, this will be my 3rd year participating in March of Dimes. Some chapter members walk, while others pass out refreshments to the walkers. The D9 ALWAYS come out and participate.
I just have to figure out which jacket I'm gonna rock. It's usually chilly during the early hours, but warms up nicely towards the end of the walk. We usually pick a place to have lunch afterwards.

Some D9 orgs have more representation than others, but you're right when you say we come out.
My sorors will be walking, and other sorors will be volunteering in the Kiddie Korner as we have done since before I was a soror. Hey! That was my first community service project when I was officially "expressing my interest" in Sigma! Memories....
I think wearing letters to events like the one you are speaking of is fantastic.
There isn't really anything in the media, at least not as wide-spread as the MTV fiasco, that gives Greeks a bad name, right now, but anything can happen and I think that as long as service oriented sororities (and fraternities) are getting out in public arenas (like a CF walk or Relay for Life, etc) and sporting letters and putting on a good face, it will be harder for people to get sucked in to the party girl/party guy, hazing, prejudicial, negative images of Greek life.
I think it's awesome when fraternities or sororities are frequently tied to a community service event or philanthrophy, I know SigEp is very committed to YouthAIDS as our major philan. So make it known that you guys are always there supporting those who need our help!
