Fraternities &amp; Sororities partnered together to host Halloween activities at their chapter facilities, and families enjoyed an extra day in Halloween Costumes with their little ones. IFC &amp; Panhellenic Council officers coordinated &amp; marketed the event to the local community, and even got to collaborate on group Halloween Costumes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Seas the Day<\/strong>&nbsp;a re-imagined Day at the Beach for Incoming Freshman to relax before the start of their first day of college. Greek Life sponsored safe transportation for First Year students to experience Narragansett Town Beach the day before Fall classes start, and get to interact with Greek Members while enjoying a day at one of the best beaches in New England. We would like to thank the Town of Narragansett in supporting this event and welcoming so many students into South County for a fun day at the beach.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure
