Keeping up with Panhel

Even though the semester is coming to a close with finals and papers, the panhel ladies have been enjoying themselves at all of the great events that have been going on. For the past couple of weeks, they've been keeping busy with Greek Week activities, Powder Puff and Relay for Life.

Greek Week:

Powder Puff Tournament
On Saturday April 10th, the women of the
Panhellenic Council participated in the 2nd Annual Powder Puff Tournament. As a part of the 2010 Greek Week Calendar, the ladies of Panhellenic teamed up with the ladies of MGC to form six mixed-sorority teams.




The gracious gentlemen of IFC and MGC donated their time to coach and referee for the afternoon. Panhellenic's Vice President of Greek Activities, Deb Van, planned the event, and held a bakesale on site.






All of the proceeds of the day will be going towards Panhellenic's brand new Scholarship Fund, which will be voted on and distributed to the community this fall. Thank you to all the men and women who came out to support, and a special congratulations to the Blue Team, our 2010 Powder Puff Champions, and to Sam Reiss our 2010 MVP!





Greek God/Goddess Competition
On April 7th, each organization had one woman compete in the
Greek Goddess Competition. It was an exciting event in which people were able to show their quirky talents in hopes of winning as a representative of their organization.





Relay For Life
On April 24, each organization held a table at NYU's Relay For Life to raise money for the American Cancer Society. This year's theme was celebrating more birthdays. Each Panhel organization, along with other IGC organizations and NYU clubs, got creative with their fundraising. From selling food, to massages, to raffles, each organization celebrated a great cause while enjoying their evening.




The women of Panhel have certainly had a busy, yet fun and productive semester. There's no doubt next fall will be even more exciting, especially with formal recruitment coming up!
