Greetings to the brothers and sisters of the NCD!
The sisters of Epsilon are looking forward to another busy semester. Second semester is a time to look forward to accomplishing a lot of service for the year. We would like to share some of our projects for this year with the district as well as let you know what the sisters have been up to.
The joint membership class has been hard at work this past semester. The Gamma Nu class for KKY Alpha Beta and the Beta Iota class for TBS Epsilon worked together on a service project with the marching band's stand books before being initiated near the end of last semester. There were about 100 stand books, many with missing music and mold from rainy game days. The new actives put in about 25 hours working on the stand books, cleaning out books and copying and replacing music for the next season.
The active members of both Alpha Beta and Epsilon got into the spirit of service right at the start of the new semester. Our chapters did service for the bands the day before school started. We accomplished a variety of jobs from cleaning the school’s instruments to sorting music. It is a great feeling to come back to school and begin bonding with our brothers and sisters through the common bond of service.
We are excited about the service projects we have planned for this semester. The sisters of Epsilon help out with the Butler University Bassoon Day. The day is for auditioning prospective students and we help with the set-up and running of the event. We plan on once again helping Girl Scouts in Indianapolis earn their music badges. This semester, we also plan to help out a band at Indianapolis Public School #91. This is a middle school band program and we plan on helping out the director and doing sectionals with the students. Our final goal for the semester is to do service for our philanthropy of Cystic Fibrosis. It has been a goal for many years and our resolution is to make it happen.
We hope that everyone in the NCD has a wonderful 2005!!
