Because they were unable to begin a new sorority, they researched various organizations, and found that A.P.O. met their requirements. A.P.O.'s motto is leadership, friendship and service. Young pointed out that the group presents many opportunities for leadership, as well as those of fellowship and service. Members have also had booths at activity fairs and the Market Street Festival, where they helped out the Selinsgrove Area Pool. A.P.O.'s first major project was to help a Ukrainian refugee family of 10 from the area by providing them with various donated products to get them on their feet.
Members also maintain group fellowship with various activities.
In fact, their first fellowship program involved visiting Fort Discovery, the playground that members helped to build last year. Although she was not there to help build the playground, sophomore Christine Snyder attended the fellowship and was impressed with the accomplishment. Before then, there was nothing there. A.P.O. has grown significantly since last year, when only about 10 students were involved. The group is in the process of completing the three steps necessary to becoming a charter group.
