Service in da 'Burgh '11 !

Thank you to everyone who helped to plan, run, and execute a successful Service in da 'Burgh!!! Our Membership VP, Kaitlin Kennard and her dedicated committee did an excellent job organizing our service projects through the night! We were able to complete hundreds of dog treats, activity books for kids in Kenya, Dozens of Caitlyn Smiles Bags, a dozen cat nip toys, close to 1,000 Christmas cards for the salvation army, painting for a women's shelter facility, and dozens of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the homeless! We could not have asked for a more successful night and such an amazing turn. Thanks for all who traveled to come and help us out, we hope you had a fun night!! A special thanks to Miryam's Women's Center and Shelter for allowing us to hold our event at their establishment overnight!

To all those who are veterans, welcome back to PITT and Circle K! And to all first year PITT students, we are very excited that you have decided to join Circle K!

9/1 - Children's Institute Bingo (6:20-8:30)
(**Reminder, everyone should meet either outside the William Pitt Union or inside if it is raining, on the 5th Avenue side!)

9/4 C.L.A.W Serivce Project where we will be making dog toys and also have some fun tossing a frisbee or soccer ball around Schenley Park! So bring your friends and hope for nice weather!
