Dear Fellow Penn Staters and Friends:
The Chapter sponsors various events throughout the year, beginning with the much-
anticipated football season. This coming fall we will again be watching the football
games at The Canyon's Crown (formerly named Firkin & Friar), 6958 E. Tanque
Verde Road between Grant and Sabino Canyon Roads. Click here for a map. The
location will change on occasion, so check your email or this website each week for
game day details. Again this year, we will have some fun Penn State raffle items on
display throughout football season. Money raised in the raffle goes to purchase Penn
State Bookstore gift cards for students from Southern Arizona who are currently
enrolled at Penn State.
Our annual luncheon takes place each January. This year's speaker was John Black,
the editor of the Penn State Football Letter. Other events last year included: the
student send-off picnic, manning the Penn State recruiting booth for college-bound
students at the Tucson College Fair, participating in the Tucson Big Ten Tailgate,
and monthly Happy Hours in the spring.
This website is the best way to learn about any and all things “Penn State” in
Southern Arizona -- information about activities and upcoming events will be posted
here.
Finally, we are always looking for new ideas and new people to help make the
Chapter the best it can be. We invite you to become involved by attending our
functions and/or volunteering to serve on the Board or to help with the website,
newsletter, event planning, or anything else! To learn more, please contact one of us
or any Board member.
