- The Centennial Celebration banquet begins at 6:00 p.m. on Friday, October 8th.
- The dress is Business Casual. The UMC is offering a non-alcoholic bar set up for the 6-7 time frame, and the buffet dinner will begin at 7:00p.m. Name tags will be at the door.

- Sharon Delo has arranged shuttle services on Friday night from the Millennium Hotel to the University Memorial Center where the dinner is to be held. Vans will leave at 5:30 and 5:45 and a return trip at 9:30 and 9:45. She suggests meeting at 4:00 at the Millennium for anyone who might want to have cocktails as there won't be any liquor served at the dinner. If you choose to drive your own car to campus, there is parking in a lot east of the UMC as well. You need to reply to Sharon Delo at sodelo@comcast.net and let her know you would like to use the shuttles she has reserved or call her at 303-444-1218 and reserve a spot.
- There will be a Delta Shop set up featuring all things Tri Delta--it will be set up at the House on Saturday as well.
- There will be a special program following dinner. The program will begin with remarks from our esteemed National President, Jackye Clark. We will have other honored guests attending like a university representative, our housemother, Darlene, and House Manager, Vic. Representatives from each of the 8 decades will share brief highlights and significance of their decade beginning with Jewel who initiated in 1938. The Delta Divas from the house will be performing. We will have a short video at the end and come to closure around 9:30.
- You will want to be at the Tri Delta house at 1025 15th St. at 10:00 on Saturday morning, October 9th. There will be an open house with house tours, a special program by the actives around 11:00 and a nice brunch and special birthday cake to celebrate the remarkable 100 years of Theta Beta history. The girls living at the house will free up the parking behind the house, but it is at a premium so it might be best to car pool.
- There will be a brief presentation from our House Corps. They will share with you plans and opportunities for contributing to the ongoing support of our lovely sorority house.
- For spouses who are attending that weekend, they are welcome to join my husband, Lew Kingdom, on Saturday around 11:00 a.m. to tour the Shelby American Collection Museum which holds rotating casts of legendary cars. The museum is open during October from 10-4 on Saturdays for a $5.00 admission fee. Let us know if your husband would like to join the men for a tour of the museum and lunch somewhere and if they will need transportation. lkingdom@comcast.net
- If you haven't seen the Heritage Center and have time Saturday afternoon, it is on the top floor of Old Main and really a great exhibit of CU memories. The campus has changed a lot, of course, but a walk around will certainly bring up great memories and the new facilities at the stadium are awesome.
- The girls at the house have offered to set up campus tours over the weekend. There will be a signup in the living room at the house.
Saturday evening will provide a good time for the Decades to have their own dinner together so you can have time to visit. You need to RSVP to each decade hostess by September 15th.
