Update from a Sister

We are all safe here in lower Alabama. Not one drop of rain came our way down near the Gulf. But the mid and upper sections of Alabama are in terrible shape.

PS: Am hoping that DZ national sets up another convention in Phx. I want to attend!!

Pi Zeta Roundup 2011

It started with the "wanted poster" invitations given to this year's graduates during the Taco Salad Buffet at Adelphi in March. The western theme carried through to the Seniors Recognition luncheon on April 16. Each place setting included a placecard with a "cattle brand"-like symbol (alums had Delta Zeta Bar None, and the girls had "Rockin' Pi Zeta"), several bandanna-looking wrapped mints, and a boot- or star badge-shaped chocolate cookie. The Pi Zetas also received a bottle of "bubbles," and a western notepad and "bandanna" pencil topped with a cowboy boot. The alums wore sheriff-badge nametags with their names and the phrase "Phoenix Alumnae Posse." Nametags for the girls were miniature "wanted posters." Napkins that looked like denim were trimmed with "rope" design and red bandanna border. Several of the alums dressed according to the theme. Officers wore white "hats," just like the good guys in those good old days! This year's graduating seniors are gorgeous, talented, and looking forward to the years ahead. We hope they all will become active Delta Zeta alumnae, wherever they are. Dr. Leona Aiken, ASU Psychlogy Department, presented the program on women's health studies, and focused on her research of sun health. Assisting her were graduate students Ellen Yeung and Dr. Stephanie Moser. Numerous alums signed up to be in future research studies. Jane Prall conducted the Seniors Recognition Ceremony. Each girl received an open pink rose, symbolizing the alumna level, and a certificate of recognition from the Phoenix alum chapter. Many door prizes were given out, and everyone went home filled with great food and lots of sisterhood!

Carol Sweeney Impresses Again!

Well I am up to my nonsense again. I ran a race this last Saturday and came in 3rd place for my age group 65-69. Beautiful day and great weather were on hand too! I am trying to provide motivation for younger DZ's to stay fit and healthy!

Kind Regards,
