2009 Fraternity Day of Service.... Dr. Seuss Party!!

On February 27, the Piedmont Pi Beta Phi Alumnae Club and the NC Gamma Pi Phis celebrated our 2009 Fraternity Day of Service by hosting a Dr. Seuss Party for children 6 - 8 years old from the Salvation Army’s Boys’ and Girls’ Club in Greensboro, NC. We decorated bookplates as Tieg, one of the WFU Pi Phis, read GREEN EGGS AND HAM, the first book she had ever read by herself. Our refreshments were green deviled eggs and ham rolls, along with a six layer "Cat in the Hat" cake and fish cookies. Then the children enjoyed playing games based on Dr. Seuss' books (Pin the Hat on the Cat, 1 Fish 2 Fish Bowl Toss and a Sneetch Beach Ball Game). At the end of the party, each child received a First Chapter Book to take home. They each also received a coloring book and a box of crayons and a bookplate, that they had decorated, for their own new book.
