Every year Greeks and non-Greeks come together to celebrate the University’s annual homecoming week.
This year, the week kicked off with the 5K Dawg Dash benefiting UGA Dance Marathon with approximately 100 participants coming out (in the cold!) to run for the kids.

Sunday night, sisters of Zeta Tau Alpha won the crown in the Greek category for their artistic talent in the street painting competition. They were followed by Alpha Chi Omega in second place and Delta Gamma and AKL in third place. The Student Merchandising Association placed first for non-Greeks, followed by 4H/Sigma Alpha and Gamma Sigma Sigma.
The Homecoming Extravaganza was a hit on Monday in Tate — free pizza was given out and students could vote for homecoming court on the spot. The Brumby Beach Bash also was a success Tuesday, with games, food and giveaways. Legion Field block party hosted more than 30 Athens restaurants giving away food along with several live performances.
The always popular homecoming parade led to a float-building victory for Delta Zeta and Alpha Gamma Rho, trailed closely by Sigma Delta Tau with Sigma Nu and Gamma Phi Beta with Alpha Tau Omega. Non-Greek winners were the Engineering Club, 4H/Sigma Alpha and then the Student Merchandising Association (These groups seemed to clean-up with awards…).

And finally Saturday, while the Bulldogs tackled Troy, the oh-so-fabulous Natalie Webb was crowned Homecoming Queen 2007 with Dennis Byrd as her king. Congratulations to both of you!
