DAYTON,
OH - February 24, 2008
- The 2008 Greek All-Stars made last nights
performance only describable by one word:
Sensational. The taste of African-oriented
stepping and urban music, with Jazz and
Classical, Hip-Hop and Crunk, mixed with
fashion and dancing, left attendees with
a full stomach and a sense of much-appreciated
satisfaction.
Executive Director Tim
Carthon began the All-Star-studded
night with a moment of silence for a Dayton,
OH native named Meshawn Brown, a member
of Alpha
Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. Delta
Xi Chapter at Central
State University and a 2008 Greek
All-Star Selectee. He was tragically
killed in a car accident on December 04,
2007. His mother received his Greek All-Star
Selectee Certification, along with a letter
of condolences from Showcase Executive Director
Tim Carthon.
When the curtains finally arose, it was
pure audience pandemonium. Performing this
year were Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.,
Delta
Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., Phi
Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc., Tau
Beta Sigma National Honorary Band Sorority,
Inc., Zeta
Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., and Sigma
Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. Participatory
Greek organizations, but non-performing
ones, were Sigma Gamma Psi Christian Fraternity,
Gamma Beta Psi Christian Sorority, and Mu
Phi Epsilon Professional Music Fraternity,
Inc.
Later that evening, Mr. Carthon revealed
the "Meshawn Brown Scholarship,"
a $500-$1,000 college scholarship designed
to assist one student in securing an opportunity
for higher education. The first ever recipient
of the M.B. College Scholarship was a soft-spoken,
shy, teenage Sophomore named Schronda Robinson
from Dayton, OH.
On
stage together for a great and positive
cause, this All-Star-studded Greek
Step Showcase awarded
these "Greeks" for excellence
in academics, community service, organization
involvement, and positive campus and Showcase
impact . However, there is one Special Award
that only one individual Greek All-Star
can receive. The highest award within the
All-Star Greek Step Showcase: The MVG Award.
The Most Valuable Greek. This year. there
were two new Special Awards introduced:
The MVO, The Most Valuable Organization,
and the MVP, the Most Valuable Personnel.
This year's MVP
Awards recipient was Micah Momient, the
Showcase Music Director and a member of
Sigma Gamma Psi Fraternity and Mu Phi Epsilon
Fraternity, Inc. The 2008 MVO Award was
earned by Tau Beta Sigma N.H.B.S., Inc.
And the most coveted of Showcase Awards,
the MVG Award, was, for the first time,
a tie! The Co-MVGs were Theodore "Teddy"
Block, Jr., the 2006 MVG and 2-time Greek
All-Star, and Tamiesha Hurn, a 1st-time
Greek All-Star.
After the Awards Ceremony and more All-Star
rhythmic music to our ears, the Showcase
capped off a wondrous night of musical,
achievement , cultural, and rhythmic celebration
with a guest performance by Alpha Phi Alpha
Fraternity, Inc. Delta
