Phi Mu sisterhood doesn't end the day you graduate college - it's for a lifetime! Continue your journey as a Phi Mu sister by joining our alumnae chapter.
The Central Missouri Phi Mu Alumnae Chapter hosts monthly events that encourage the bond of Phi Mu sisterhood, give back to our local community, and support our local Phi Mu collegiate chapter.
Alumnae chapter members, please take our survey so we can best plan future activities and dates! It's just four questions long and will take just a couple of minutes to complete.
This week we celebrated the holidays with our first annual alumnae chapter holiday party!
Our members and their significant others gathered at Columbia eatery the Wine Cellar & Bistro for some delicious food and wine. We were too busy having fun to snap any pictures (oops!) but everyone had a wonderful time and we collected many gifts for a local toy drive! The night was a success.
Our November meeting will be at the Chi chapter house! Mark your calendars for Tuesday, November 8. Come to 503 Kentucky Blvd. for our monthly chat about Phi Mu goings-on, and stay for a tour of the historic house.
Being that our chapter is based in Columbia, home to the University of Missouri and Phi Mu's Chi collegiate chapter, many of our alumnae are from Mizzou — and many were excited to celebrate the University's 100th Homecoming!
To commemorate both the milestone Homecoming and the 10th anniversary of Chi chapter's recolonization at Mizzou, our alumnae chapter hosted an alumnae happy hour and an alumnae brunch during Homecoming weekend!
On Friday night, about 50 Phi Mu sisters mingled during happy hour at Boone Tavern in downtown Columbia. Then on Saturday morning, both Phi Mu alumnae and actives (well over 100 people) gathered at Chi's chapter house for a ceremony (including some wonderful speeches about the beginnings of Chi chapter) and brunch.
Chi's current president, Abigail Schwerer, introduced the event. Nicole (Moore) White, Chi president from 2002 to 2003, and charter member Sara Farmer shared their early Chi memories. Our alumnae chapter president, Julianne (O'Bannon) Germinder, spoke about alumnae involvement. Guests were treated to a slideshow of photos from Phi Mu sisters past and present. Our alumnae chapter also sold photo books at the event to raise money for a commemorative tree planting.
It was great to catch up with our sisters and celebrate Chi's sisterhood, which is growing ever stronger. We welcomed all alumnae in our chapter, regardless of Chi affiliation, to join us in our Homecoming activities.
Here are some photos from the weekend:
