CLEVELAND,
OH - May 04, 2010 -
The All-Star Greek Step Showcase™
announces that,
due to the recent ecological tragedy on the Gulf
coast, the 2010 National Greek Fraternity and
Sorority Achievement Awards™
has been postponed until Fall, 2010 in order to
coordinate the "Oil Spill Ecosystem Rescue
Event" Fundraiser.
The
OSERE Fundraiser will be hosted by Greater Fellowship
Assembly and is being held in order to emotionally
support and monetarily
assist in rescue and relief efforts of
marshlands, jobs, and endangered animals along
the now Oil-tainted
Louisiana Coastlines; a state which has already
experienced a massive,
devastating natural disaster in Hurricane Katrina.
"Sometimes you have to make a decision
between the lesser of two evils. This time,
we are fortunate enough to have to make a decision
between the greater of two goods," said
Tim Carthon, Showcase Executive Director, "In
our case, we can not only help the young people
in our country with scholarships from the All-Star
Showcase, but we can actually help older individuals,
who relied on the now
devastated seafood job market in Louisiana
and the other three Gulf States, to make it through
this horrible disaster and the subsequent, unbelievably-trying
economic times."
New
Showcase, 2010 All-Star audition, rehearsal, and
performance schedules available soon.
All individuals interested in Showcase All-Star
or Personnel positions may continue to submit
Showcase applications and audition videos. Simply
go to the Showcase, 2010
All-Star Red Carpet Countdown Page to start

About
The Greeks United! All-Star Greek Step Showcase®
The Greeks United! All-Star Greek Step Showcase®
showcases yearly “The All-Stars of Greek
Fraternities and Sororities™.”
This rare, “Academy Awards®”-type,
red carpet event turns off the on and offstage
aggression and stress of competitive Greek step
show competitions. Instead, it brings individuals
of different fraternities and sororities, groups,
ethnicities, and genders all together for a huge,
celebratory evening of warmth, cheers, empowerment,
awarding of accomplishments, and overwhelming
support of all non-participating and participating
individuals and national organizations.
The
Greeks United! All-Star Greek Step Showcase®
concept came in 1999 when the event creator, Step
Master Tim Carthon, had seen enough of the negative
reputation and stereotypes of fraternity and sorority
life. He decided that it was time to create a
constant way of showing the sides of Greek life
for which he believed the founders of these organizations
created them: excellence in academics, community
service, organization involvement, and positive
campus, local, regional, national, and and international
impact.
The
Greeks United! All-Star Greek Step Showcase®
is a privately held subsidiary of Carthon Choreography
headquartered in Ohio. For more information read
