Come join the women of Sigma Kappa for a fabulous Italian dinner. For just $7 a plate you can have your choice of spaghetti and meatballs or fettuccine (vegetarian) and garlic bread. For people purchasing tickets that are not within Sigma Kappa, your dinner will be provided in a to-go container for your convenience!
Proceeds raised will be donated to the Sigma Kappa Foundation for the benefit of the Maine Seacoast Mission. The Maine Seacoast Mission provides for families living on islands off of the coast of Maine who have no access to food, clothing, medical supplies or other resources. Maine holds a special place in the heart of Sigma Kappa, because we were founded in Waterville, Maine on November 9th, 1874.
Friday, Nov 8 @ 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Where:
Sigma Kappa Chapter House
308 W Cherry St.
Carbondale, IL
