What's in a theme?

A great way to pull together your programming and events and to make things interesting is to put together a Pi Phi theme. Check back every day this week for club spotlights to see Pi Phi creativity at its best!

The McKinney, Texas Alumnae Club is using a "Hollywood" and "silver screen" theme for their programs. Check out the club website for the clever meeting titles and see how they carried it over to the interest groups!

The first meeting of the year was the Premiere. The October CAR (Champions are Readers) event was called Night at the OsCARS. The Little Angels interest group (group for Moms with preschool age children) had their first event at the pool. What was it called? SPLASH, of course! Click on this link to see more.
