Please print this E-mail and take it to your next chapter or council meeting! It's not just for on line chapters and sisters (land chapters sisters benefit as well) The Beta Journal Com and Beta Sigma Phi Org sites are putting even more information and material on line than before, so stay connected to the E-Editions. http://www.betajournal.com http://www.betasigmaphi.org ------------------------------ Get ready for another fun filled and memorable cruise with sisters beginning October 6, 2007 sailings. Go to http://www.betajournal.com/sea_jewel2007.pdf NEW ENGLAND/CANADA CRUISE ================================================== ================================= STORY SUBMISSIONS FOR THE E-EDITION ON LINE OF THE BETA JOURNAL Karen M. Ing, Editor ================================ NEW BETA JOURNAL E-EDITION MAILING LIST ================================ Again! A New Mailing List has been set up. The current list we are sending you this E-mail from will be dissolved after today. In the future if you want BSP news by E-mail once every 2 months and special notifications, you will need to be on the new mailing list. The New Mailing List will require that you confirm your registration for security reasons. Go to http://www.betajournal.com and scroll and look to your left to find the sign up and follow the directions. -------------------------------------- HURRICANE PLANS Judy in Mississippi has asked if we can do anything to pre-plan to help sisters who may have to evacuate their homes due to hurricanes this season. I'm not sure exactly what we can do since it's usually hard to get in touch with most people when that's happening but I figure if members, chapters and councils want to do some pre-planning and make offers of help those in need. So if you have any plans to share with us or offers for lodging for stranded members, please let us know and we'll do our best to be a clearing house for offers and those in need. Thanks.
