Bethany Celebrates Halloween with Parade and Costume Contest
The Town of Bethany held its annual Halloween Parade and Costume Contest last weekend. Several of the brothers of Beta Theta Pi, led by Community Service Chairman Bob Rovnanik, prepared the Bethany Memorial Church for the festivities. Following the Trick-or-Treaters’ parade led by the Bethany Volunteer Fire Department, five of the fraternity's men judged the costume contest. The Town provided cash prizes for the contestants voted the Scariest, Most Original and Best Costume for two age groups of 0-10 and 11 and older. Attendees enjoyed homemade caramel apples, cookies and cider. 

Working with the Bethany College Service Learning Center, the Betas used this event as a service-learning opportunity and to encourage other students to contact the Center (service@bethanywv.edu) to learn about other upcoming events for which to volunteer.

Beta Theta Pi and Alpha Xi Delta Win Greek Week

Greek Week, a time for Bethany College’s Greek community to come together and celebrate Greek life on campus, took place April 14-17. During the week, chapters competed in various events ranging from dodgeball to trivia, soccer tennis to tug-of-war and ending with Greek Sing on Saturday night with a packed Commencement Hall. The service event for the week resulted in more than 700 cans of food being
donated to Bethany Memorial Church. Based on the overall number of points accumulated for winning each event (both chapters won Greek Sing), Beta Theta Pi and Alpha Xi Delta received the men’s and women’s Greek Week trophies, respectively, on Saturday night. The event was planned by a student committee comprised of representatives from each chapter and co-chaired by Allison Winwood, senior and member of Alpha Xi Delta, and Chris Smurthwaite, junior and member of Phi Kappa Tau.
