UF Intramural Beach Volleyball Game 2/26/12

UF Intramural Beach Volleyball Game 2/26/12

Originally posted by Claire D. Page

The Florida Chapter had its second to last intramural sand volleyball game on Sunday. The members who showed up to play that night and were met by a team with the same record as we did. Both teams warmed up and our team continued to show great improvements upon each successive time we play together and are definitely looking forward to the last game of the season. As for the game itself it was a rainy and cold night so the teams decided to call it a draw and go into their last game as 1-1-1. The team is looking forward to their next opponent Sketchville USA and hope it will be another good game ending with a win!

UF Woodser Social 2/24/12

Originally posted by Claire D. Page

With all the smores fixings bought, the Florida Chapter was off to another successful woodser. Every semester we take a road trip to a local campsite in the middle of what seems to be nowhere for our Woodser. We reserved a campground at Kate's Fish Camp where the ranger came out and helped set up our bonfire to make delicious smores! Members gathered around the fire to share stories about their semester and to meet the newest pledges...

Cook's Big Little Olympics

Cook's Big Little Olympics

Originally posted by Lisa K. Izzo

On February 26th, the Cook Chapter hosted the Big/Little Olympics for the semester. The theme was opposites, with each big little pair dressing up in opposite fashion. Some pairings included nerd and beauty queen, the 1% and the 99%, and Waldo and Wenda. Big little pairs played games like The Blob, Ninja, Heads vs Tails, Tanks and Dodgeball. The Olympics was a great chance for littles to bond with their bigs and for brothers to get to know the new pledge class a little better.

UF Ronald McDonald House Service 2/21/12 & 2/23/12

UF Ronald McDonald House Service 2/21/12 & 2/23/12

Originally posted by Claire D. Page

Members of the Florida Chapter took their lunch break to go join up with other organizations and sororities to help out at the local Ronald McDonald House in Gainesville. While at the house members help remove and replace box springs and mattresses in the house. The Ronald McDonald House provides temporary housing, basic amenities and support to families with critically ill children seeking treatment at area medical facilities. The program helps to stabilize situations for families and allow them to concentrate all of their time and energy on the treatment and recovery of their children. By just changing out their beds to something newer and more comfortable we may have just made their day a tad better!...

UF Archery Lesson by Orange and Blue Archery Club 2/19/12

UF Archery Lesson by Orange and Blue Archery Club 2/19/12

Originally posted by Claire D. Page

The Orange and Blue Archery Club hosted Alpha Zeta for an archery lesson before their club practice. A team member Lauren taught the group the proper techniques of how to hold a bow and the arrow and equipment for shooting arrows. There was a great turnout for Alpha Zeta and all of the members had a great time! After overcoming the difficulty of the wind, members were able to shoot at foam targets, and several members came close while others did in fact hit the bulls eye. Members were able to learn about the challenges of tournament play and the different types of bows and arrows required for the sport. It was a great experience to join up with another UF club and a fun day outdoors!

The Florida Chapter has an annual rose sale, which is one of our biggest fundraisers! Our fundraiser chair, Gernide Zamor, did an excellent job planning everything out to the T! An order form is e-mailed to the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences faculty listserv as well as the Florida chapter's AZ listserv and placed in the school newspaper a week before the big day. We order over 500 roses in red, white, and pink colors to fulfill our pre-sales and to sell individually on campus on Valentine's Day.

The Florida Chapter started its Spring intramurals in beach volleyball with a victory! Members will meet every Sunday at the outdoor volleyball courts for the games this season. With the temperatures running in the 40s on the night of our first game, the team members tried very hard to stay warm (we are from Florida remember)! We won the first set 21-15 and dominated again in the second set, winning 21-17. Samantha Sites led with some great serving and Ana Zegarra had a few nice dives!...

On February 15th, brothers and potential new members from the Cook Chapter gathered at a local Applebees to take advantage of the half-priced appetizer deal. This recruitment event is a favorite of chapter members, as it gives them a great chance to sit and talk with the potential new members. About 50 brothers and potential new members came out to enjoy a night of good food and good company.
