Meryl Lin McKean is presented the UCM Distinguished Alumni Award 2014

We are so proud of our own Philanthropy Chair who received this award at the University of Central Missouri's homecoming this year. The rest of KC knows her as a health care reporter on FOX 4. "The 1980 UCM graduate takes her journalism responsibilities seriously. Her reporting has received multiple awards, including Emmys from the Mid-America Chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. Her health tips have literally saved many people's lives." Click here to read an article on the UCM website.

Opportunity to Travel to New York!

The Kansas City Panhel has extended the invitation to join Pi Beta Phi for their 2014 Theater Tour. Though it’s sponsored by Pi Beta Phi, they have people coming from all over the country representing many different houses, and bringing their husbands or friends or daughters. It is really a fun weekend where everything is taken care of! You stay at the elegant Waldorf Astoria and just enjoy the four plays, the food, and New York City. This year we are taking a tour of the new 911 Museum, which has just opened. The registration deadline is August 13. See materials attached for registration information.
