Delta Gamma's Eggstravaganza 2013



Madison Jones

Tuesday, Greek organizations got a chance to get outdoors, enjoy the weather, and help raise money for a good cause. Delta Gamma hosted it’s 2nd Annual Eggstravaganza.

Eggstravaganza is Delta Gamma’s Easter-themed philanthropy event. All of the proceeds went to DG’s philanthropy, Service for Sight, which raises money and awareness about visual impairments and eye safety. 


The event was created by Senior member of DG, Sarah Lifer. She was looking for a way to bring philanthropy into the Spring for her chapter.

Lifer’s event was a huge success. Hundreds of students have come out both years to help raise money to support Service for Sights and hundreds of dollars have been raised.  

Another reason Lifer created the event was to promote Greek unity among the chapters. Both goals have been accomplished.

Eggstravaganza consisted of an egg toss competition, a sign making contest, an egg-themed cook-off, an egg race, the bunny hop race, and the highly anticipated egg-drop competition.

Alpha Gamma Delta and Alpha Kappa Lambda were the ultimate winners of Eggstravaganza. While only one fraternity and one sorority could win, everyone who came out to the event had a great time.

Delta Gamma raised over $350 through their event.
