Pi Phi Runs in the Mud and Gets Ready to Roar!

It is definitely a busy time of year for the Greek community! Philanthropies seem to be happening right and left (not to mention HOMECOMING is coming up so soon!); Pi Phi loves philanthropies and supporting other amazing causes with the rest of the Greek community and Virginia Tech.

The sisters of the VA Zeta chapter of Pi Beta Phi have had an amazing semester thus far! It was so fun participating in FarmHouse's philanthropy, especially taking part in a very unique philanthropic activity: a mud run! The Pi Phis were excited to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society -- and have fun in the mud with women from lots of different chapters from the Oak Lane community.

The sisters of Pi Beta Phi cannot wait to participate in a fellow sorority's philanthropy this week, and support another very important cause during Alpha Delta Pi's Safari Hunt! All of our sisters are looking forward to helping raise money and awareness for the Ronald McDonald House Charities and ROAR at the ADPi chapter women.

ADPi + Pi Phi love at FarmHouse's Mud Run!
The Greek community and Virginia Tech have a busy next two weeks coming up with Virginia Tech's Homecoming festitivies! Pi Beta Phi is honored to have a candidate for Homecoming Queen, Amanda Crouch, and we cannot wait to support her these upcoming weeks! The sisters of Pi Phi hope that everyone has a great time with homecoming and we can't wait to see everyone out to celebrate another Virginia Tech homecoming!

Excitement for Eta Pi

The women of the Eta Pi chapter are wrapping up an exciting month filled with philanthropy planning, participation in other Greek philanthropies, volunteer work, and visiting the newest Alpha Delta Pi chapter at James Madison University. 

 On Saturday the 23, a few chapter women traveled to Roanoke to volunteer at the Walk for Leukemia. Sisters were in charge of a table and a "Wishing Tree" before the event began. Walk participants had the ability to hang up their own wish on the tree.


During the past week, chapter women participated in Delta Delta Delta's fall philanthropy, "Fitness, Flapjacks, and Football".  Participants had a blast eating pancakes, working out at McComas Hall, and playing football in support of St. Jude's Children's Hospital. In the same week, Eta Pi also participated in FarmHouse's philanthropy. Chapter women loved participating in FarmHouse's "PDA" aspect of their philanthropy. Women tweeted, Facebooked, and showed the FarmHouse men their love all week. Girls also went to Moe's for percentage night, and participated in FarmHouse's first Mud Run on Saturday the 29. 

 On Friday the 28, chapter women headed two hours north to James Madison University to participate in installation ceremonies for Alpha Delta Pi's newest colony. James Madison University welcomed 201 new Alphas to their newest colony. Eta Pi couldn't be happier to have so many new sisters close to Blacksburg, and can't wait to be more involved with the new colony. 

Chapter women have been working hard and looking forward to the upcoming week as their fall philanthropy, Safari Hunt, takes place October 2, 3, and 4.
