For those of you going to convention .. the list of arranged excursions is now up on the web site..

So this is cool. Over half of the chapter I advise is attending some part of Convention.
1 for the full package (delegate)
5 to the philanthropy breakfast
2 for the weekend package
3 more for the rose banquet.

Best part? Besides our budgeted delegate, The university (SGA) granted us $1000 which allowed everyone to attend and we only ended up paying $35.00.

They are all super excited!! I'm excited too! This is my 6th convention and my favorite part is that I DON'T HAVE TO FLY!!!

Two weeks until convention .. is everyone getting excited?

me! me! me!

Hey Paige....Can I talk ya into doing me a favor? I have had my eyes on this t-shirt and also this t-shirt for quite some time, but I just never got around to buying them. I'm not coming until Friday and I'm afraid that IF they are available at the store, that they will be sold out in my size by the time I get there (2X). Would you be willing to pick them up for me early during convention so they aren't all gone by the time I get there?

Can't wait to see you all. If there are any new GC faces who wll be at convention this time, we should plan a meet up....

Amanda .. I'll be glad to ... really looking forward to seeing you.. call me when you get in.

So jealous! I'd love to go. Health doesn't cooperate. Have a blast!

The second is available online right now.

Can't wait to see everyone there! It looks like it will be a lot of fun. I'll be a little busy, since I'm presenting in one of the educational sessions and hosting a table at the Conversation Cafe. I think I am also working the Rose Petal Event. Not sure of that one, but it looks like it will be loads of fun. But it's totally awesome that it will be in Atlanta!!!

And, if any of the BIGWHIGS are reading this, I really hope one of the vendors will have Miche bag shells!!

Am looking forward to getting on a plane tomorrow and the start of Convention 2011 .. see you'all soon!

Have fun, Paige! I wanna come to your convention. ;)

I do too. Have a great time!

I wish it was Friday already. I only signed up for the Friday evening/Saturday package. Keep reading on FB about all the fun everyone is having and I wish I was already there. :( It's nice that convention is close to home this time, but I'll be glad when it's not again in 2 more years so I'll have an excuse to go to the whole thing!

A fabulous Convention 2011!
 

This past weekend's 49th Alpha Xi Delta convention was absolutely fabulous!

Kudos to our Alpha Xi's and friends who organized this year's gathering.

I'm thrilled to have met AZ-Alpha Xi who is a true jewel in our Alpha Xi Delta quill! Thanks for sharing your magnificent quill collection, being such a positive force in our organization, and a goodwill ambassador.

It was remarkable to see old friends and meet new ones. Thanks to all my Georgia sisters who attended and represented our region so well.

I'm so blessed to be a part of this stellar organization.

Xi Love!

It was announced at the Rose Banquet that the 50th Convention of Alpha Xi Delta will be at the Hilton Union Square, San Francisco!!
