Everything ran smoothly. Nice speakers, not too short not too long, well

this possible. Pictures comming soon.

Phi Theta Kappa
International Convention - Ignite the
fire within!
Co-President Irma Giglia, Vice-President Kenneth Pinó, and member Karen
Ross traveled to Minneapolis
from March 31st to April 4th to attend Phi Theta Kappa's 2004 International
Convention with title, "Ignite the fire within".
The convention was a combination of awesome speakers, talented performers,
great workshops, the best fun, and the smartest 2-year college students of
course!
It is difficult to explain in words the power and energy of this event. But
just by telling you that the three of us came back changed forever should
be enough to understand it.
All along we wished that all of you were with us sharing this wonderful
experience. We hope that these pictures and little description make up for
the fact that it was not possible.

Project Graduation: We are asking all members to
collect non-perishable food items and children's books in good condition.
There will be a dumpster in the southeast lobby to drop off your donations.
Ask friends and family to help in this worthwhile cause. Last year we
donated all the items collected to a transitional house for women. We chose
the Epiphany house on 4 th St.
Many of the women and children have come out of abusive relationships and
are trying to start over. It was a good feeling that we were able to help
these families see there are helping hands out there. Project Graduation
will run through Friday, March 26 th . Evelyn Anderson, co-president, is
organizing this project.
Bingo anyone?: We are looking for people who like
to play Bingo. The Veteran's Association in Elsmere has Bingo the first
Monday in April and May. They are looking for volunteers to play along with
the veterans. The games are from 6:45pm-8:00pm . I will get directions for
anyone interested. Email me (Irma) with any questions.
Valentine's Day party:
We are planning a Valentine's Day party for a Cub Scout troop of homeless
boys in Wilmington
. It will be on Tuesday, February 10 th , from 6:30-7:30pm. We will be
having fun with approximately 15 boys ranging in ages from 7-11. We will
need to carpool because parking is limited. The location is a childcare
center at 221 N. Jackson St
. This should be fun. (Hint-set is in the answer) All the details will be
taken care of; all you have to do is show up. Any ideas for games are
welcome.
If you plan to join, contact co-president
Irma, or let her know at the next meeting.
First Induction Ceremony (12/4/03): Small
induction ceremony for all members who joined in the fall semester. Held in

AI DuPont hospital: A huge pat on the back for
Evelyn for organizing a group to go to AI DuPont hospital to spend time
with the kids. We all had a great time; we played bingo, pool, house, air
hockey and colored. We gave every child a gift and a smile. Thank you to
all our volunteers: Megan Parker, Karen Ross, and Debbie DeSantis .
