EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS FROM INTERNATIONAL - Only The Torch notification is emailed to one person per chapter starting with the corresponding secretary and all members-at-large. Other emails may go to different officers.
CONVENTION HOSTESSES - ATTN: Any city holding a convention in 2024, please check the list on the Website to see if your convention is listed. If it isn't, it's because we don't have your information. In order for it to be listed we need at least the date, and location, we really need the information sheet so we can give information to members who call us for contacts. The convention information sheet is on our downloads page, you can download it, fill it in and mail, fax or scan and email it to us that way you'll get coverage available at any time on our website. We do not post contact information to protect your privacy but any member can call or email us and we can give it to them if we have it! The invitations committee meets in late January, early February to make the guest decisions for that year, if we don't have your request, you have less chance of getting your choice of guest. We can only send guests to conventions of 200 or more but we do have a drawing for the smaller conventions and the winner will receive a guest. Please help us out to have your information ready for the sisters to look up! Thanks. Laura

INTERNATIONAL FACEBOOK PAGE
Internationally-sanctioned Facebook page --- This page features official updates, deadlines, and content from our social media team. We hope that this will be an incredible platform to showcase our sisterhood. In addition to a new Facebook page, we will be asking any interactive groups/pages related to Beta Sigma Phi (excluding chapter, council, state, and province pages) to change their audience from public to private. Guidelines for these situations are below. This is simply a precaution we would like to take in keeping our traditions, rituals, and sisterhood private.
