On October 23rd, Pi Zeta sisters, Phoenix alums, family members and guests enjoyed our first-ever potluck picnic to observe Delta Zeta Founders' Day. A large ramada at the SRP PERA Club in Tempe was the gathering place for about 80 attendees. A bubble-blowing contest followed lunch. Phoenix Alumnae Chapter President, Ann Santos, then lighted a candle in memory of Phoenix alum, Lucille Hall Moon, who passed away last spring and presided over membership milestone ceremonies. Gamma Lambda, San Jose State, sisters Dia Mundle and Dianne Coppo were officially made members of the Silver Sisterhood for 25 years of membership. Joyce Hanson Madson was formally made a member of the Order of the Pearl for 65 years as a Delta Zeta sister. Each received a beautiful long-stem pink rose in a vase and a certificate of recognition from the Phoenix Alumnae Chapter. Pi Zeta closed the event with a ceremony about our sorority's six founders, followed by a singing of "Delta Zeta Lamps."
