Our First Arrowbowl

NY Epsilon held their first ArrowBowl, a flag football tournament to raise money for First Book and the Pi Phi Foundation.  Ten teams participated and Pi Phi's served as referees and coaches as well as forming our own team.  The single elimination tournament was held at ECAV and raised $450 dollars.  Teams from all over campus were recruited to participate and foam footballs were handed out as invitations.  

Sisters cheered on all of the teams and kept the games running smoothly.  The Pie a Pi Phi board was also out and Gatorade for competitors.  The championship was played  between Pi Kappa Alpha (PIKES) and Phi Kappa Theta (Ski Lodge).  The first RPI Arrowbowl Champions were Phi Kappa Theta (Ski Lodge).

Super Late but here it is!

Finally, here's the video of our California Gurls recruitment skit.  I hope everyone likes it.  Thanks to Minnesota Alpha for the idea.  It turned out so cute and the PNM's really loved it.  Featuring our resident songstresses, Katy Trembley, Monica Ricci, Kasey Francia, Lauren Fellers and Dianne Gan.

Alumnae Weekend was a huge success!

For reunion & homecoming weekend, the sisters of Pi Beta Phi hosted a brunch and cookie shine at the chapter house.  We were so excited to see that so many alumnae came back and shared their Pi Phi memories with us.  

The Class of  1986 returned to celebrate their 25 year reunion and we enjoyed spending time with some of our chapter's first members.  The cookie shine was open to families and friends of the fraternity.

  

After the cookie shine, the group headed over to Fan Fest at ECAV and the homecoming football game.  

We're on a BOAT!!

On Saturday, the sisters of Pi Beta Phi celebrated their sisterhood at our Fall Formal.  Organized by VP Event Planning, Courtney Ann Stakutis and her committee, it was nautical themed party held on a boat on the Hudson River.  

Sisters and their dates traveled on buses into downtown Troy and boarded the boat for the evening.  The dance floor was bumping all night and dinner was served buffet style on board.  Everyone had an amazing time dancing and partying like it's 1867.
