National Convention

Day Four

    It is amazing how the sorority is something that women care about for the rest of their lives. During our awards dinner that night, I was able to hear stories of women who have become successful because of the support of their sorority sisters and who were able to over come major obstacles in their lives because the sorority gave them the support and life skills to over come it. I am so proud to say that I am a member of this accepting, generous, and fun organization. I couldn't have picked a better bunch! At the awards banquet, my collegian chapter was awarded the Crown of Excellence Award. I could not be more proud of my chapter sisters and the volunteers that helped them to grow into the wonderful women and chapter that they are today. I know that everyone worked very hard and that my chapter was very blessed! I had a wonderful time while I was there, and I hope the women to follow will love being a part of it as much as I did. After the Convention concluded we packed up and awoke early the next morning to begin our long drive back to Indianapolis. It was an amazing week filled with learning and sisterhood that I am so happy I got to experience!

Dede and Jean: both past national council volunteers and two of the oldest attendees of National Convention. They have been friends for the past 65 years and have attended every National Convention and local sorority event since becoming friends. That is amazing!
