The Fund hosted its’ inaugural Family Reunion Sunday Brunch on Sunday, October 25, 2009 at Phillips Flagship on the Washington, DC waterfront. There was no better way to end a marvelous assortment of Howard University Homecoming festivities, than by having a wonderful brunch with plenty of your closest friends and family members. This was not your typical brunch, however, as there was a magnificent food selection ranging from breakfast foods to an array of lunch foods including crab, shrimp, and oysters.
Food and fellowship were not the only highlights of this year's brunch. A Chinese auction also occurred, with the proceeds going directly toward the scholarships given out annually by the Fund. The different prizes raffled off were gift certificates to Phillips Flagship, an autographed Washington Redskins jersey, an impressive piece of artwork from the Rachel D. Crouch Art Gallery , Microsoft software, Howard paraphernalia from the Howard University Bookstore, jewelry from Unique Home Gifts and Accessories, and many more. Gifts were also given to guests for different 'superlatives' that were chosen by the fundraising committee, such as best dressed, farthest traveler, and the eldest attendee, just to name a few. The Phi Sigma Pi, Alpha Tau Chapter Endowment Fund, Inc. would like to thank all of the committee members, guests, and sponsors that made this year's Family Reunion Sunday Brunch a huge success. We look forward to seeing you all next year, and of course, bring a friend!
