Yesterday in Red Square, the brothers of Sigma Phi Epsilon joined forces with Northwest Auto Salon to present the third annual Red Square Charity Car Show. Three years ago the event was founded as the kick-off to the weeklong philanthropy event, SPE Karts. Each year we hold the event, it is an improvement on the last. As philanthropy chair, I am proud to announce that at this year’s car show, we were able to raise $2,250 for the Progressive Animal Welfare Society through car registrations and spectator donations. That effectively doubles the amount we raised last year and I hope that in future years, the trend continues.
The week’s events are far from over! Tomorrow evening, sorority participants will decorate a soapbox derby kart each chapter was given. On Wednesday, sororities will participate in a field day that will include a relay race and sumo suit wrestle. Finally, the week will culminate in a soapbox derby race held on the University of Washington campus where the sorority with the most points will win the title as “SPE Karts 2010 Champions”. For more information on the week’s events check out the Facebook group: “SPE Karts 2010”.
