Well I am a ways from Tacoma (Just across the border in Surrey, BC) but it would be a great event to go to!

[SigkapAlumWSU]

Yeah for Roxanne! She is one of my sisters from WSU (p/c 1999) and I know that they wanted to get a local Pan started in the lower end of the sound. (Seattle already has one) So three cheers for that!
She is also a member of the Tacoma Alumnae Chapter of Sigma Kappa (Which I helped recolonize in 2000 (ish?)

Sorry, I'm just so proud.

[SmartBlondeGPhB]

Yep, it's pretty much been a two women show with Roxanne offering quite a bit of help.

Good Luck.

Hi there! I am still planning on being there! How exciting!!

[SmartBlondeGPhB]

So far we will have 8 groups represented (that I know of) tomorrow and one more who was unable to attend tomorrow.

Not too bad for an area that only has a few NPC member group alumnae chapters.

[SmartBlondeGPhB]

9 women representing 8 GLO's and 3 more interested.

A very good turnout!

And the official name is the South Puget Sound Alumnae Panhellenic.

Hi all! I just wanted to add my .2 cents and say that the meeting was great and that meeting all the other NPC ladies was great!

We had such an easy time getting the initial parts of the NPC organized and I am really looking forward to our next meeting.

What a great group and great potential for panhellenic sisterhood! Come join us if you are in the area!!

[SmartBlondeGPhB]

Come join the South Puget Sound Alumnae Panhellenic!

Our next meeting will be Sunday June 13, 2004 at 1:00 in Tacoma WA, please bring a salad to share with the group.

The South Puget Sound Alumnae Panhellenic is being formed to offer a social environment for Greek women in the Puget Sound area as well as to assist women wanting to learn more about the sorority experience as they prepare to enter the college ranks.

This meeting will consist of a few administrative items and then will offer ample time for socializing. We’re hoping for a nice day of sunshine so we can be outside!

Hope to see you there!

For directions and to RSVP, just drop me a line. Please pass this announcement on to anyone else you think may want to join us.
