Parents Weekend!

This year parents weekend was held on Nov. 6-7. It started off with a bang with a desert after dinner party at Arch Bar. It was a chance for parents to mingle and get to know one another. On Saturday our parent's attended the GA. vs. Tenn. Tech homecoming game. With a win from GA the day was off to a great start! Following the game Delta Zeta hosted a cocktail dinner party at the classic center in downtown athens! It was a blast! Live music, dancing, and food our members and their parents had a blast!

I have a Choice

For this years I Have a Choice Program Zeta Pi decided to do something different from the usually mocktail party or another event involving only Zeta Pi’s. I Have a Choice was held on a Thursday night with Brother’s Under Christ (BYX) to promote an alternative to drinking and a fun night for members of both Greek organizations. Tthis year we had over 150 Zeta Pi and BYX members in attendance. The roller skating rink had a great atmosphere and the entire night was themed “the 1980s re-lived.” Zeta Pi has a long tradition of holding our 80s social with our favorite fraternity so it was a real treat that we could hold an 80s themed party with the brothers of BYX..The prized best dress went to a Zeta Pi who wore her mother’s prom dress from 1988.

11th Annual Wingbash

We gave $4000 to the Turtle Grant and 6,416.60 to the Painted Turtle Camp and other national philanthropies. We are so thankful for everyone who participated and helped us out!

Amanda Ness and Shannon Lazo both had such amazing experiences and memories to share with the rest of the Chapter.
