The Omicron Legacy: One Century, One Sisterhood
Mission Statement
Omicron Chapter has a unique history of accomplished women who will proudly gather to reunite, remember and renew the spirit of our sisterhood. This Centennial Celebration will ensure the legacy of our shared experiences.
Though we are waiting on the 2010 MU football schedule to be finalized, the Centennial Celebration marking Omicron chapter’s 100th Anniversary is tentatively schedule for October 1-3, 2010! Mark your calendars now!
The CC Committee has already been at work (since 2005!) planning for the celebration, and a basic outline of the weekend has begun to form:
Friday, October 1, 2010:
All Member Cocktail Party
Era Rooms Open |
Saturday, October 2, 2010:
Greek Town Heart Walk
Chapter House and Campus Tours
Plaque Dedication
Era Rooms Open
Banquet Celebration including Centennial Ceremony, Entertainment by Collegians, Keynote Speaker, Group Photo and more! |
Sunday, October 3, 2010:
Initiation of 100 New Members and Alumnae
Farewell Brunch |
Even with all of these scheduled events, there will be plenty of time for pledge classes and groups of reunited sisters to plan their own gatherings out on the town of Columbia! Sisters of each era will help arrange these as we get closer to the weekend.
You may be thinking….”I can’t wait to see old composite pictures and scrapbooks!” The great news is there will be plenty of those items at the celebration! Era Coordinator, Debbie Hacker Serra, we will be asking you to bring your favorite Alpha Phi memories to share. Start thinking about where you have stashed those old photos and Alpha Phi memorabilia! Gathering areas (Era Rooms) for each of the major time periods in Omicron’s history will be provided so you can view these memories and rendezvous with your sisters.
If you are interested in volunteering, please contact the Centennial Celebration Committee at Omicron2010@alumnae.alphaphi.org.
Thanks to these sisters for already joining in on the planning!
