On June 13, 2020, the Phoenix Panhellenic Association made this announcement about its Centennial celebration:
We have made the difficult decision to go virtual on August 8th and move to the evening. The restrictions for social distancing in a ballroom and bringing together 390 people during this pandemic was not in the best interest of our guests. If you feel safe we do encourage you to consider hosting viewing parties (10 or less) at members’ individual homes.
We know this is not how we wanted to Celebrate Centennial. The event has never been about a fancy ballroom or the food, it’s been about Engaging, Inspiring, and Empowering Women. We can still do that virtually!
We promise this is not a Zoom “meeting”, it will be a show. A show you don’t want to miss!
Mari Ann Callais, Theta Phi Alpha, is the guest speaker. If you’ve never been in the audience for one of her sessions, now is the time to tune in. Artist Tiesha Harrison will LIVE paint during the event. The emcee is Colin Tetreault.
You can read more about the celebration. It includes profiles of the women who are being honored and a history of the organization written by Susan Norman, Delta Zeta.
Register to attend the virtual program, free of charge.
