Omega Phi enjoyed its 52nd year with an abundance of activities. The club participated in Spring Sing 1987 with Ka Re Ta social club. Dressing as piano keys, the clubs presented a show entitled "Note-orious." For the 1987 spring banquet, Omega Phi went to Murry's Dinner Playhouse in Little Rock for dinner and the musical "Oklahoma!" Special awards were presented to several members, as well as gifts to graduating members and beaux. In the fall, 14 new inductees called F.O.P.A .'s (Future Omega Phis of America) ran, dated and sang their way through Silly Day and Pledge Week. Pledging activities concluded with a devotional and slumber party Friday night, and formal induction on Sunday. Omega Phi won the softball championship in the fall, defeating Ka Re Ta in the final game. The club also participated in all other sports. Omega Phi participated in two activities in the fall to benefit the Searcy Head Start program. On Oct. 29, the club conducted a Halloween party for the children at the school, organizing games and providing candy for the students. On Dec. 11 , in cooperation with the S.A. Movie Committee, the club collected money and canned goods at the movie "It's A Wonderful Life" to provide food for the families of the children. Fall semester activities concluded Dec. 1 with a Christmas banquet at the Wyldewood Retreat Center. Members and dates enjoyed an evening of decorations, food, games, music, gifts, and friends. In the spring, the club decided not to participate in Spring Sing 1988. However, they held a Valentine's Party, spring banquet, and other activities, and conducted the traditional Easter egg hunt for the children at Head Start. "Omega Phi is a lot of fun because the members have many different interests,'' said Susan Holt , club asurer. "I think this really makes our club uni660megaPhi Single Clubs BECKY ALLBEE... "If I had a problem that I needed some help with and I couldn 't handle it alone, I know that I could feel free to talk to any one of the girls in Omega Phi because we all care about each other and we don 't judge each other; we accept each other for who we are. I feel that Omega Phi is simply agroup of very underst1lnding Christian women." Line-up.
