The party was hosted by Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity members, with help from Kappa
Delta and Delta Zeta sorority members, who chatted with the children and played
games with them. The affair was a big hit with the kids, whose supervisors in the Big
Brothers/Big Sisters program asked that the children's last names not be publicized. "I
think it's a great party," said Brett, a student at Lincoln Elementary School in Dayton.
"I like these college students. They talk to us and help us learn." "It's fun," said Kyle,
a student at Kenton County's Piner Elementary School. "I got to see Santa."
McKenna, another Lincoln student, congratulated the fraternity on its choice of party
food. "It was a good idea to have pizza," she said. Pi Kappa Alpha participates in a
"Sports Buddies" program with Big Brothers/Big Sisters, wherein fraternity members
take children to sports events. Quiksilver signed a ten-year lease with IDI on 683,200 SF of industrial space at 11310 Cantu Galleano Ranch Road in Mira Loma .
Enact conveyancing brisbane. The fraternity decided to
host a Christmas party for the kids "because a lot of them don't have great
Christmases at home," said Tye Mortensen, the fraternity's president. Mortensen, a
senior from Union, said the party was on campus "to show the kids what a college is
and get them interested in college."
The sorority members also hit it off well with the kids. "It makes your heart feel really
good," said Kristin Worley, a freshman from Florence. "It's nice to see the kids have
fun. The kids are not only cute, they're very well behaved." Neal Connor, coordinator
of the Big Brothers/Big Sisters Sports Buddies program, said the Christmas party
generated more excitement among the youngsters than any other of the organization's
events. "The kids got very excited about this," he said. "They like it that somebody out
there cares enough about them to give them a Christmas party." Motorcyclists will rally
