Σummer Kampout Weekend
Join us for our second annual Σummer Kampout Weekend on
June 3-5 at the Σigma Kastle Beta Tau house.
It will be a sleepover filled with sisterhood and service.
Whether you can count the years since graduation in dozens or on one hand,
all Sigma Kappa Beta Tau alumnae are invited! Come join your alumnae sisters
for a good old-fashioned sleepover weekend with laughing, reminiscing, connecting,
and revisiting the best of sorority life in the house.
Σummer Kampout is our largest fundraising event of the year.
Not only does the weekend include fun and easy service projects to help our
collegiate sisters prepare for fall recruitment, but all proceeds will also help the
corporation board support chapter house needs, like new kitchen equipment,
landscaping, and composite restoration.
The cost is $250/night and includes your room in the Kastle, up to four catered
meals (based on length of stay), upscale and exclusive Beta Tau alumnae swag,
and a weekend of unforgettable memories.
All RSVPs must be received by May 15 to ensure
all unique details are in place for each attendee.
Payment is accepted through Venmo at @Beta-TauCorpBoard.
