During the 2006 academic year, Zeta Pi participated in Greek Week with all the other sororities and fraternities on campus. Seven of the chapter’s fourteen members attended Convention in Salt Lake City – 50% of the membership! In the fall a book drive for RIF involved the whole school, collecting 165 books for donation to Americorps. The entire chapter attended the annual Founders Day brunch with the Boise Alumnae Association and held its annual turkey dinner with the Sigma Chis in Blatchley Parlor.
The 2007 Academic year was filled with many exciting events for Zeta Pi chapter. Members successfully sponsored the annual Kappa Kasino event to benefit its local philanthropy, the Valley Crisis Center and its specia special Heart Sister Dinner, an opportunity to bond and spend some quality, stress free time together. Province Meeting was in March and nearly every one from the chapter was able to attend. It was a memorable event, with members meeting sisters from several other chapters in the area and learning about their traditions. Also in March, the chapter assisted with the second annual Mercy Community Sale Gala on March 23rd.
Tradition continued as Zeta Pis decorated Easter eggs along with the two other national sororities at The College of Idaho, Gamma Phi Beta and Kappa Alpha Theta. The easter Easter eggs were donated for the annual easter Easter egg hunt at the Valley Crisis Center. The much anticipated Derby Days, hosted by the Sigma Chi Fraternity, finally occurred in April. In this weeklong competition, all the campus sororities participate in several events, and one sorority gets the coveted title of Derby Days champion. At the end of the week, Kappa Kappa Gamma came out as the victors
In May 2nd, the annual scholarship banquet was held, with certificates presented to members who met the Academic Excellence criteria The final major event of the year was a “giving tree” to benefit the Salvation Army that was set up in the student union building. Nearly all of the gift tags were taken (about 75) and all things considered, it was one of the most successful events of the year.
