Atlanta Panhellenic is 2nd Runner Up for Outstanding Alumnae Panhellenic Award

From the Atlanta Alumnae Panhellenic Association:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The National Panhellenic Conference announced via their Facebook page that AAPA is the 2nd runner up in their annual Outstanding Alumnae Panhellenic Award. Since 2005, AAPA has ranked in this award competition every year it is eligible. In 2009, AAPA was 1st Runner Up for Most Outstanding Alumnae Panhellenic. AAPA won Most Oustanding Alumane Panhellenic for the 2003 - 2005 biennium.

Congratulations to all 21 of our member sororities for their work in serving women in need, providing scholarships for women in college and grad school, and professional networking and friendship for NPC women of all ages!

The Atlanta Panhellenic has been working with SDOC Publishing for internet services since 2006.  Since taking over the maintenance of the site, there have been two distinctive design changes, the development of a growing news blog, major hosting upgrades, addition of interactive functionality (event calendar and online RSVPs for events), extensive social media integration via Facebook and LinkedIn, and a comprehensive intranet including closed email distribution and private document management.

For fall of 2011, I'm planning further architectural upgrades and greater interactivity, especially internally among the 21 (!!!) individual sororities.

Congratulations, AAPA and continued success for the coming academic year.  I am very proud to be of service.

Opportunity Knocking - Dunwoody Music Festival

Small businesses looking for a local market need look no further than Brook Run Park in October.  The Music Festival, sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce is looking for food vendors, artisans, business exhibitors (including non-profits) and sponsors.

There's some way for everyone to get involved here, from small businesses with limited (read:  almost no) budget to large corporations.  Small local businesses have the advantage because of the face-time contact.  The Chamber is expecting 10,000 sets of eyeballs to see your logo, purchase your products, or visit your booth to learn about your services and you.  Food vendors - or restaurants who can create a mobile setup - this one's for you.  (Anyone got the number of that "Hail Ceasar" salad truck that was in the July 4th parade??)

You can submit your application in less than 5 minutes online at http://www.dunwoodymusicfestival.com/.  If you have any issues with any of the forms in the application menu, post a comment and I'll get right on it.

Food vendor applications are due AUGUST 30.  (That's 2 weeks from now, gang! Don't put it off to the last minute.)

Marketplace and Business Exhibitor applications are due September 30.  First come, first served.

Marketplace vendor booths are $195 each and Exhibitor booths are $500.  Discounts apply for early submission.
Food vendor pricing is more detailed.  Check out the Food Vendor Application for more info.

Yes, the Chili Cook-Off will be back too.  Info will get posted as soon as Oktober gets it over to me.

See you there!
