There are several ways to get involved…consider making a year-end gift by purchasing a table and inviting friends to join you for the day. You can also join your sisters and put a table together. You won’t regret being with us for our celebration of reading. Remember …you can pay your pledge prior to the luncheon as a 2015 contribution, or defer your payment until after the new year.

Buy your tables now to have you, your children, or your grandchildren considered for the limited modeling spots available. Spots are filling fast—secure your table TODAY!

If you are unable to join us, all levels of support are needed and welcome. Thank you for making Wild about Reading the biggest and best Pi Phi luncheon ever!Below is a form to fill-out and return with your commitment. Please call or e-mail with any “roaring” questions.
— Melissa Garlington, Martha Justice, Cindy O’Donnell, and Betsy Striegler (Underwriting Chairs)
