Please join the Photo Circle and upload any pictures & videos you have as a member of the Alpha Phi chapter. This app works best on a cell phone. We need media in three categories: chapter and individual accomplishments/awards, fun times at the house or chapter events, and your personal favorite photos.
In addition to photos & videos, we would love to highlight some of your favorite memories from your time as an Alpha Chi. Please share your favorite memories with us! Please also feel free to bring your AXO photos, scrapbooks, and other memorabilia to the 100th celebration to share. We will have display tables at the AXO house on Friday!
