Our Spring Quarter in Review

Spring Recruitment

To start off Spring Quarter 2013, we participated in Spring Recruitment.  We put a lot of work into it, and in the end it more than paid off because we got four amazing new girls!  Our Bid Day theme was Hawaiian Luau, complete with limbo and a tiki head piñata.  A big congratulations to our president, Shannon, and Vice President of Recruitment, Jen, for giving us such a successful recruitment.

Beach Clean Up Philanthropy

Shortly after recruitment, our Vice President of Philanthropy, Emma, organized a beach clean up for us to help in through Heal the Bay.  It was at Santa Monica Beach on a beautiful Saturday afternoon.  Who can complain about helping the environment while getting a tan?  Not us.

 Mom's Day

In May, we had our Mom's Day event to celebrate the women we love most.  We went to The Huntington Gardens and Library and had tea, strolled around the gardens, and saw the library and famous artwork.

Alumnae Tea

Our amazing AAC Chairs, Jennifer and Ann

As our last event for the school year, we hosted our annual Alumnae Tea at our house in June.  We had sandwiches, salads, tea, coffee and pastries and we were able to hear the alums' stories from when they were undergraduates.  We also had an etiquette presentation by Jules Hirst of Etiquette Consulting, Inc. where we learned (or re-learned) manners like passing the salt and pepper together and how to give a proper handshake.  The alums raved about what a great time they had and all the actives went away from the Tea with a greater understanding of what Pi Phi for Life truly means.  


Seniors Graduation

Finally, the bittersweet day came when our beautiful seniors graduated.  They will always be remembered and loved, but now we get to call them our alumnae!  We wish them the best of luck in the real world and hope they all visit their Pi Phi home soon and often.
