Seventeen sororities battled it out on the dance floor tonight in hopes of winning the 2014 Greek Sing competition.
Each sorority had to select a theme that went along with this year's slogan, "Dancing Through The Ages".
The event took place in the Auburn Arena at 7 p.m.
Greek Sing is put on every year to by Auburn's Panhellenic to benefit Habitat for Humanity.
Alexis Barranta, junior in public relations, is the Panhellenic president in charge of overseeing the entire event.
"This year we tried to reach our capital of $50,000 so the monetary goal should be coming in and totaled after this event," Barranta said.
One of the Panhellenic delegates helping out at the event, Rachel Silva, sophomore in nutrition science, liked that this event does more than just raise money.
"What we've done so far is send about 20 to 40 girls for three Saturdays to the Habitat for Humanity stores, so we could get hands-on volunteer work with Habitat for Humanity too," Silva said. "So we didn't just raise the money for it, we actually went over there and worked."
This year's top five finalists were Alpha Delta Pi, Alpha Omicron Pi, Kappa Delta, Pi Beta Phi, and Delta Delta Delta taking fifth place.
Mattie Schirle, sophomore in accounting, is one of the performers from the Alpha Delta Pi sorority.
The girls have grown closer from all the practices over the past few months, according to Schirle.
"I was so nervous, especially being the last people to go," Schirle said. "We worked so hard and it definitely paid off."
Along with bringing together the Greek community and showing off their talents, Greek Sing is about something more, Barranta insists.
"It also shows that the Auburn community really does give back," Barranta said. "That's what this is all about, to give back to Habitat for Humanity from Auburn University."
