Central Florida Chapter Notes
The Big Ten Kickoff/Student Sendoff Picnic was held at Turkey Lake Park on Sunday, August 17. All indications are that it was a complete success. Read about it and view the photos.
Football season is upon us!
The season begins at high noon on August 30 at Beaver Stadium, where the Nittany Lions face the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers. We know a few people who are rabid enough fans to make the trip, but most of us will stay here and watch it on TV. Why not join us for the inaugural viewing party of another great Nittany Lions season here in Central Florida. We have a brand spanking new viewing location for football games, Miller's Orlando Ale House, in Winter Park.
New T-Shirts
We have a brand new chapter T-shirt design. (To make room for the new shirts, we are offering close-out prices on the old ones. Visit the Chapter Store for details.)
Scholarship Committee
Our Scholarship Committee has once again awarded its annual grant to James Molnar of Orlando. We wish to congratulate Jim for his accomplishments, and we hope all members will consider making a most 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.
Renew Your Membership!
Last, but not least, the new academic year means that it is once again dues renewal time! Remember that Chapter dues are separate from the main Penn State Alumni Association, so please renew those with the main organization in University Park. Chapter members receive many benefits. For more information and for easy payment of dues via credit card or PayPal, please visit our Chapter Store.
Annual Newsletter
Our annual newsletter is available here now, henceforth and always.
Web Site Reorganization
Our curmudgeonly webmaster, the most honorable Rt. Rev. Nittany Turkey, was getting tired of the way things were organized here on the site, so he applied his terrible, swift sword to the HTML, the PHP, and the CSS, only to come up with something that looks, um — remarkably like the old site. Katie, our fearless leader, demonstrated consummate patience and forbearance through the entire ordeal. But I digress. One significant change is that this year, in addition to the slight reorganization, for the first time we have added some carefully selected ads from sponsoring firms. Otherwise, you should feel right at home here on the site.
And Now, A Word from Our Sponsors...
