New Info Hard to Find on Arrowmont Property Sale


I don't have any new information from Pi Beta Phi HQ regarding the possible sale of the Arrowmont property in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. The latest statements from Pi Phi were posted on the HQ Web site over one week ago: go to http://www.pibetaphi.org/ and you can find them on the homepage.

I know you were hoping to receive news from the Grand Council sometime this week, and I feel confident we will hear something from our leadership soon. Until then, we have newspaper and television reports to give us the latest. Here are several links to the most recent info:
