Beta Theta Pi Pole-Sitting Charity Marathon
Fri., Nov. 9, 1984
Four brothers of Beta Theta Pi spent twenty-four hours sitting on poles in order to fund raise for the Carlisle Local Action Center (C.L.A.C.). The organization provided food for needy citizens, recreation and activities for underprivileged youth, and jobs for senior citizens and teenagers. With media coverage from the College radio station, Channel 21 news, The Evening Sentinel, and The Patriot, the brothers raised $1,500 for the charity.
