Hi there,

I am the Catering Sales Manager for the Holiday Inn Calgary South. Marilyn Kletzel left a message for me regarding viewing our conference space, but it seems the number was passed on to me incorrectly. I would love to show you the space and, if it`s appropriate for you, work with you in the future. Please get in touch!

Hi, I am the daughter of Thelma Williams, a long time member of Calgary Beta Sigma Phi, last chapter was Zeta Master I believe. Thelma will be celebrating her 100th birthday in July of this year in Lethbridge and I would like to know if this could be recognized by means of a card or something along this line. She has lost touch with most of her former sisters as she went inactive after attaining her 65 year pin.

I was a member of Omicron Chapter in Calgary in the early 90`s. I have been inactive for several years.
As the Social Inclusion Manager of the Cerebral Palsy Association in Alberta, my role is to reach out to communities and organisations in Alberta and provide Educational and Awareness presentations about Cerebral Palsy and the Cerebral Palsy Association in Alberta, who we are and what we do. I would welcome the opportunity to speak to your members whether it be at a chapter meeting or another event. Could you provide me with the best contact in this regard?
Sincerely Christy Bangen

Hi.

I`m a member of Beta Sigma Phi - Phils. Chapter. I became an active member in university. My chapter though is a fraternity and sorority. I live here in Calgary for years now.
It would be my pleasure if you would consider or recognize my membership here in Calgary Chapter.

Hope to hear a feed back.

I became a member of beta sigma phi in 1962 in Calgary Alberta. My last meeting was in Penticton, Bc in 1963. Since then have been inactive.
I am retireded now and wondering about what I can do to be productive in the sorority again.
My name at time of new membership was Eileen Radomske.
I wonder if there is a record of my membership in Calgary .
Looking forward to hearing from the sorority.
Yours truly,
