Phi Theta Kappa at SFCC

04/10/2026

Congratulations to our All-Missouri Academic Team members! SFCC had four students earn this scholarship award, putting money directly into their pockets to help with school expenses. They were recognized at Stephens College during a luncheon, with their friends and family in attendance. Below from left to right is Dr. Michael Murders (SFCC Vice President), our three in attendance All-MO recipients Ailee Mezentsev, David Jimenez III, Virginia Jones, and two PTK advisors Dr. Kimberley Miller and Stephanie Hull. Not in attendance were All-MO recipient, Misty Conklin and PTK advisor Dondi Ramirez.

Phi Theta Kappa students are helping in multiple capacities this evening! Our talented group of students are members of the choir and band. They will also serve food, ensuring those cookies and treats stay fully stocked up for Jingle! We hope to see you there!

Our first two days of working at the Missouri State Fair are in the books! We are selling fried green tomatoes (located near the rabbits/poultry and 4H building) and cheese curds (near the women’s building and Kubota display)! Thank you to Lenny Freund and Freund Family Foods for this opportunity! Thank you to Dr. Brent Bates for thinking of us and recommending we take on this work! More pictures to come! 8 more days left! We have PTK students and friends and family working! Next Saturday, August 16, we have a local celebrity worker at the fried green tomato stand! Stay tuned to see who it is!

We would love your support! Come on out to the Missouri State Fair and eat a fried green tomato!

Be sure and stop by this concession at the Missouri State Fair. It is across the drive from the Fairgrounds Fire Station. Due to the generosity of Concessionaire Lenny Freund, an SFCC Distinguished Alumnus, the SFCC Honors Society, PTK, is helping run the stand. Proceeds they earn help students attend the PTK national conference. I am working the late shift Saturday, Aug 16. Buy a green tomato from me.

Did you know that Dr. Bates, SFCC President, loves fried green tomatoes (FGT) sooooo much that it inspired Lenny Freund, 2020 SFCC Distinguished Alumni, to purchase a food truck specifically for FGT? True story!!!

Also a true story… Lenny Freund is generously working with Phi Theta Kappa students to earn money by working the FGT truck and his cheese curds truck at the fair. This will help pay for their membership dues, travel expenses, and community projects throughout the year. We have many students who are eligible for our honor society, but never join and miss scholarship opportunities because they cannot afford the membership dues. Stephanie Hull and I have waived the local fee, bringing cost of membership down to $70 per student.

Would you be willing to work a shift or two to sponsor our honor students?

If you are a current member of PTK, or an eligible member, you can work and earn money for you… straight into your pocket!

Shifts are available all days at the fair, August 7-17. Shifts are from 9am-4pm, 12pm-7pm, and 4pm-11pm. Please email [email protected] if you would like to work a shift!! Thank you, in advance, for supporting our students! - Kim & Stephanie
