Theta Lambda-University of West Florida
At Theta Lambda Chapter, to help us develop and prize health and vigor of body we stay constantly busy between intramurals in the fall and Greek Week in the spring. This spring we practiced for six weeks before Greek Week, which all paid off when we won Greek Week 2009 (again)! This fall we participated in volleyball, flag football, soccer and disc golf intramurals on campus and in all of these sports we had two teams. We had a game four days a week! Many of our sisters also trained to compete in the Sigma Chi Derby Day Dash on campus in October which helped us win Derby Days 2009. - Rebecca Sullivan
Beta Upsilon-Roosevelt University
Staying healthy has always been a priority for the members of Beta Upsilon Chapter at Roosevelt University. This semester we lived the Purpose by ensuring that we provided lots of healthy snacks at events such as our Bid Day, sisterhood retreat and program meetings where we had guest speakers. We also planned many dinners, where we all brought a variety of delicious and healthy foods. One of our members occasionally teaches classes at a fitness club, which we all plan to attend whenever we can. By staying true to these standards, we will be healthy and having fun for a long time. - Emily Petroschuk
Beta Delta-Indiana University
Our chapter values the importance of positive body image and the necessity of leading healthy and active lifestyles. Last spring, a chapter program taught the women of Beta Delta Chapter about positive body image and the importance of being comfortable with your body. We used index cards to write down our favorite personal qualities and then posted the notes around the house for everyone to read. The practice gave us the opportunity to recognize the beauty in ourselves and our sisters. Also, we are involved in numerous intramural sports throughout the school year and often visit the gym together. This year we implemented a change in our lunch and dinner menus that allows for more balanced and healthy meals! - Laura Scheer
Zeta Epsilon-Michigan Technological University
We fulfilled “To develop and prize health and vigor of body” by looking out for each other once the swine flu hit Michigan Tech’s campus. For the healthy sisters, we encouraged one another to work out and eat better by making healthier meals together. For the sisters who got the flu, we encouraged one another to take it easy but still made it known that we were here for one another if needed. - Krista Knight
