Sisters, I am honored to be serving as your Chapter President. Our Officers have put together a fun-filled calendar, not to mention we are hosting Zeta Day!

This summer, I had the privilege of attending my first ZTA Convention, where a few of you joined me. We earned the Crown Chapter Award for Excellence!

This year, we want to focus on increased participation. With at least 2 events each month, we hope we have included enough variety of activities and loca-tions for everyone to enjoy.

We also want to focus on service. With sisters all over Tampa Bay, I am sure our members are serving our community, more so than we end up including in re-ports. If you participate in a service event, please let us know, so we can serve the community together as sisters, and so our National Council recognizes the hours we are already putting in! If 2 members attend, it counts as a Zeta event!

I hope to see all of you at an event soon. With the level of commitment our members are already showing, I am confident we can achieve big at next Con-vention, but more importantly, spend time together and have fun!

Zeta Love and Mine,

Brittany
