Overheard on Dec. 11, 2024 at the Shark Bar in Plano with lots of “pretty” people in the place…

A fraternity brother joked with another that one of their brothers was there “looking for a wife.” They laughed and enjoyed eyeing his “many options.” Women were in a festive mood, giddy and all smiles. There was great music, food, crowd chatter and toys… plenty of them. From bikes, playsets, athletic balls and boardgames, tables overflowed with donations.

This was the fourth year for the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated Omega Alpha Omega Chapter and Frisco Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Incorporated’s Holiday Toy Drive benefiting the Boys & Girls Club and Martin Luther King Center in Denton.

The event was energetic and will surely make kids happy this holiday season. With so many gifts and people in a giving mood, I hope Santa is nice and gives the fraternity brother a wife!
