Recapping 2011 Alpha Chi Omega State Day: Florida #TBT

One of our beloved collegians Tracy - a rockstar this one! She served on the executive board at Beta Eta, Rho Lambda and numerous other organizations and honor societies at FSU. She went on to receive her J.D. from UF. During her time at UF she served as the New Member Education advisor. Here she speaks on behalf of Alpha Ch Omega Foundation; she received two scholarships from Foundation during her time in school. Tracy radiates our five membership criteria!

We always make time to purchase stars at the Star Booth to honor our sisters and assist Foundation!

Look at this fine group of Beta Eta alumnae and collegians! We appreciate all they give to Alpha Chi Omega and our lifelong Bond of sisterhood.

State Day in Florida 2013

Remember our previous post where we described State Day?

The Beta Eta collegians and Epsilon Tau Epsilon alumnae enjoyed a fun and productive day at Stetson hosted by our Gamma Chi chapter. The morning was spent learning about our Strengths and how we can focus on those to make ourselves more productive executive board members, chapter members and Alpha Chi Omega citizens. After a yummy lunch, we broke out to learn about utilizing social media, MyJourney, MissRepresentation, financial accountability and more. It was a fun day of meeting new sisters and honing our personal best to become Real. Strong. Women.

Florida's State Day

On years when we do not have our National Convention, states and regions gather to enjoy the society of their sisters, do a bit of training and, most importantly, have fun!

Let Amy or Jenn know if you can attend State Day for Florida this year. We can carpool if you like. We know all 7 collegiate chapters in the state will be there and we hope all 18 alumnae chapters will attend as well.

Save the Date!!!
