End of the Year (Semester) Newsletter!
Welcome to the end of the semester and the end of our academic year! I want to first start off with a fantastic, massive thank you to all of you who have read my newsletter, whether just once or all semester, and I want to thank you all for being so kind and friendly. I didn't expect to be in this position, but I am more than grateful for the opportunity and for the privilege to be on exec this semester.
I am super excited and honored to be able to pass this Newsletter on to your new Recording Secretary for Fall 2017.....
LINDSEY HALL!
Lindsey joined in Fall 2016, and I am more than happy to pass on this position to her.
Before I pass the baton, in my last Newsletter as your Recording Secretary, I wanted to leave you with a few important things.
Public Relations
Quarter Zips will be in soon! Please keep an eye out for contact from Leah and Alana before you leave campus if you've ordered one!
Relay for Life
Once again, we as Alpha Phi Omega are the top fundraising team for Relay for Life, and together this semester we raised $17,722! Thank you to everyone who raised money, who walked, who helped with fundraisers so that our chapter could get this far. We do this for John Grossi, and for all those who have been affected by cancer. A special shout out to Rachel Sabol, who has been our Captain for the past few years, and to Abbey Mac, who was brilliant and brave and kind enough to share her story at the Luminaria ceremony this year. You have taught us all what it truly means to dance in the rain.
