¡Theta Fiesta!

We are pleased to announce that Theta Fiesta was a smashing hit, raising $16,100!

We want to thank everyone who came out to support Scotty's House and celebrate a fun evening with us. We could not have done it without you all. A big shout-out to our donors as well.

Also, a big round of applause to Votary and the Nate Miller Band, who made the night equally special. These are some talented musicians!

Don't forget to look out for more info next semester about Theta 5K, happening on Parent's Weekend.

PC '12 get here quick!

A few weekends ago, party chairs for recruitment gathered for a day of hard work to begin preparing for Recruitment 2012. It was HOT HOT HOT outside, but somehow lemonade and homemade cookies made it all better. It was great to see people after 2 months of separation and laugh about life.
There's another workday coming up on July 22, so if you are a Theta and in College Station for the weekend, we would love your help! It's fun. We promise. We wouldn't be smiling in this picture if it wasn't, would we?

Shoutout to the babies (for now), Lauren Addington and Ellen Taylor, for putting up with demands to run errands and being just all around the best. Bravo ladies.

Cinco de Mayo Date Party! ARRIBA!

Date party was held May 5 (AY AY AY!). Thetas and their dates had a blast dancing, shooting pool and saying farewell before summer begins. Mustaches seemed to be a popular costume choice. Props to those who left the itchy stick-ons attached all night.

Thanks to all who came out, and a special thanks to PC'08, who celebrated their last Theta party! We will miss you crazy KATs mucho.

Congrats, Kaitlin!

Kaitlin Mohr, PC '10, was recently named Texas A&M Community Student Employee of the Year 2012! Congratulations, Kaitlin, on such a momentous and prestigious award. We couldn't be prouder!

Planting Pinwheels

A handful of Theta's drove out to Prosperity Bank on Texas last week to replant the 800 pinwheels from Theta 5K. Each pinwheel represents an abused child in the CS/B area. Scotty's House is celebrating the month of April and raising awareness in the community for all of the children affected.

5K chair Alex Compton was simply overjoyed after raising 61K for Scotty's House and CASA

Theta's 27th Annual ROCK THE CASA 5K

Suffice to say, this year's ROCK THE CASA was unbelievable. Under the direction of Alex Compton, Teresa Sorentino, Jennifer Madden and Alison Stogner, Theta was given the privilege to raise $61,093 for Scotty's House and CASA on March 31, 2012. All of the proceeds will go directly to these two organizations, who work with abused children locally and nationally.

Theta 5K chairs Alison Stogner, Jennifer Madden, Teresa Sorentino and Alex Compton. These girls worked incredibly hard, putting in several sleepless nights and dedicating their lives to 5K. Congrats on a wonderful event, girls!

One windmill for every abused child in the College Station/Bryan area was planted in the front yard

Seeing the total for the very first time

Due to hard work and lots of late hours, the 5k began with a bang on Saturday morning. Over 1500 residents and students from the College Station/Bryan area and out of town gathered at the Theta house to run for the children.

The race begins!

Several students wore backpacks with speakers so that runners would have music
and messages from sponsors to accompany them on the 3.2 mile run.

The chapter couldn't be more blessed to be given this opportunity to work side-by-side with the community to raise funds for such beautiful organizations. We would like to thank our sponsors and everyone who came out to help us!

She was ready for the race!

It wouldn't have been Theta 5K without our favorite PC '11 twins, Sarah and Megan Smock

PC '11 worked extremely hard to set up on race day. Way to go!

It's not a Theta event without a pre-dance party

Some of PC '10 excited for the runners to arrive!

If you didn't make it this year, don't forget to sign up next year. It's kind of an annual thing. And we would love to see you there.
