Sunday night, CA Delta waited anxiously on the lawn for our 60 new members to come running down the row and join our house. For this Fall's Bid Night, we decided to have an in-house Casino Night complete with two food trucks and a DJ. The NomNom truck provided every girl with a Vietnamese Banh Mi sandwich and a street taco, with delicious choices like honey grilled pork and lemongrass chicken. We also had the Coolhaus ice cream sandwich truck provide seven gourmet ice cream flavors and five gourmet cookie choices, all wrapped in an edible rice paper wrapper with the Pi Beta Phi logo.
The in-house was one of the best choices for CA Delta because it gave us the opportunity to really talk to our new members and bond with them through sisterhood. Girls taught each other how to play craps, blackjack, and roulette and at the very end, everyone cashed in their chips for raffle tickets, which they used to participate in the raffle. All the prizes were Pi Phi related: cups, lanyards, license plate frames, and back to school packages that included pencils, pens, and post its. The most coveted prize was the Pi Beta Phi lavaliere won by one of our active members. It was a successful night focused on introducing our new girls to true sisterhood and having the time of our lives. Thanks to Casino de Paris, the NomNom truck, Coolhaus, and Nick Loui (DJ) for a fantastic night!
