New Banner

We are very excited about our new banner!  We're going to use it at our garage sale, Arthritis Walks, Jingle Bell Runs, and anywhere else we think it will be useful!

Ladies Night Out at Benihana

We had a great time at our annual Ladies Night Out!  This year we went to Benihana.  The seating was perfect for our group!  We had lots of time to visit with each other while being entertained by the chefs.

Happy early birthday, Dina!

Donna was thrilled to get her 50-year pin!  She's going to send a picture of it to her Beta Phi sisters that she stays in touch with.

Jeanne brought this tray that she saved from being sold at a garage sale!  These were given to each Beta Lambda senior by the Mothers' Club.  This one was given forty-six years ago.

Elmhurst College Alumnae Reception and Presentation

Several members of our alumnae chapter attended a reception on May 7, 2013 to learn more about the presentation that AOII is making today, May 8, 2013 at Elmhurst College in Elmhurst, IL.  Special thanks go to our chapter member, Sharon, for hosting this event!  We had a lovely time meeting local alumnae and learning about the presentation process.

The cake was made by an AOII's mom, a local baker!
