Here we GROW again!

In January Pi Beta Phi will welcome a new chapter - Mississippi Gamma at Mississippi State University.

Alumnae Clubs are invited to help make our new members feel extra special by providing treats for goodie bags. Goodie Bags will be presented to members during a Bid Day celebration (Jan 25) and at a Cookie Shine (April 3). . These gifts of support can range from simple notes of welcome to a small item purchased by the club. We are anticipating 125-150 new members!

If your club would like to participate in this endeavor, please mail items for the Bid Day Goodie Bag by January 15 and items for the Cookie Shine Goodie Bag by March 23. Everything should be sent to Jessica - Leadership Development Consultant for MS Gamma.

Address: Jessica Hinton, c/o Pi Beta Phi, Mississippi State, MS 39762.

Please know that this is not a required activity by your club, only an opportunity to welcome our new sisters.
