Raleigh Area G Phi B Alumnae Chapter - raleighareagphibalumnaechapter

Dear Gamma Phi Beta Alumnae:

The Raleigh Area Gamma Phi Beta Alumnae Group is ready for another terrific year. The attached schedule lists the eight events scheduled between September 2010 and May 2011. We have something for everyone! If you are a Gamma Phi and have not yet attended an event please make this the year. The group is informal and friendly and events are more fun when we have lots of participants.

We are also pleased to be able to keep our dues at $35 this year: $25 for International dues and $10 for our group dues. You'll find a dues form enclosed in this mailing. You may either send them to Sara Allen at the address on the form, or bring your dues form and payment to the September event. Our primary philanthropy this year is Meals on Wheels so plan on bringing non-perishable food items with you to our meetings. Mitzi Rackley will be updating us on specific foods requested by the program.

The officers for 2010-11 are:

Julia Fielding, President

Mitzi Rackley, Secretary

Dawn Eagan, Co-Vice President of Programs

Meghann Martinez, Co-Vice President of Programs

Sara Allen, Treasurer

We have a Gamma Phi Beta Group email account; the address is raleighgpb@yahoo.com. Feel free to email us anytime and one of the officers will get back to you. We'll be using that email account to send driving directions and event reminders approximately one week before each event. If you do not have email, please check "via telephone" on the dues form under preferred method of communication for program reminders and announcements. Also, if you have an email address, it would be easier (in future years) for the officers to email you this schedule; please drop an email to raleighgpb@yahoo.com so we can add you to the email distribution list.

We're looking forward to seeing you at any (or all!) of the events this year.

In IIKE,

Julia Fielding
