Central Florida Chapter Notes
It's Time to Renew!
As we round the corner into the dog days of summer, our sweaty Central Florida brains begin to float toward reveries of cool fall Saturdays in State College. Can Penn State football come soon enough? It'll be here before you know it, so get ready for the season by supporting your local chapter and its many benefit offerings. You'll be pleased to know that in spite of poor global economic conditions, our dues remain at a very reasonable $15 and $18 for individual and family memberships, respectively. You can pay your dues conveniently and safely on-line at our Chapter Store. Join or renew now!
Annual Picnic to Be Held August 22
Ready to once again fight the heat and see some of our friends from other alumni chapters? Join local alumni and other friends from the Big 10 for this year's kick-off picnic. There is a large air-conditioned facility for everyone to enjoy. Bring croquet, horseshoes, practice your cornhole (see below on our Cornhole tournament prior to the first football game's viewing party!) and perhaps enjoy a waterslide! More information...
Cornhole Tournament before September 5 Football Game
Hey, it wasn't I who came up with the name! See the Viewing Party page for details.
New T-Shirts for 2009!
For the 2009-2010 season we have a brand new chapter T-shirt design. WE ARE Penn State Proud of this new edition! Act quickly, as quantities are limited (particularly in sizes S and M). Visit the Chapter Store for details.)
Game Times Announced!
The Athletic Department has announced that the kickoff time for the 2009 Homecoming game with the Minnesota Golden Gophers will be 3:30 PM ET. Our first three tune-up games will start at noon. Check the schedule at left for other updates as they become known.
Scholarship Committee
Our Scholarship Committee is working hard to count votes on the 2009-2010 winner. Watch this space for a forthcoming announcement. We hope all members will consider making a generous donation to the scholarship fund. The Chapter's scholarship fund underwrites an annual grant to a deserving Penn State student with a permanent address in Central Florida.
