Mr. AXiD670 and I will be arriving on Wednesday. We're flying into Phoenix, then renting a car & driving down to Tucson. Hopefully we'll make it in time for me to freshen up before the convention orientation at 3:30.

hey that's great .. travel time down from Sky Harbor airport (Phoenix) is about 1.5 hours ... just be sure to carefully follow the signs out of the airport ... it can get confusing ... by the way ... you'll want to take I-10 east from Phoenix ... yeah I know Tucson is south of Phoenix but I-10 is an east-west interstate to we are "east" of Phoenix according to the interstate ...

Be sure to look for the ostrich farm at Picacho Peak....

let me know if you need/want directions ... its really easy to get from the interstate to the resort ..

I ordered Tucson, Phoenix and Arizona road maps from AAA, and I will print off directions from the resort's website. I might get you to PM me your cell phone #, just in case something happens.

I'm so excited. This will be my first convention. I can't wait.

GC Convention Meet-Up

When: Wednesday, June 29, 30 minutes before dinner
Where: Hospitality desk

So far we've got me, AZ-AlphaXi, flirt5721, GirlyXi, tcsparky as verified.

I'm assuming AlphaXiGirl and NorthernAXD will meet up w/ us too. :) Have I missed anyone?

Yes, I plan to meet you all there as well.

Yay!

I almost forgot about SoProud2BeAnAlphaXi -- will you be joining us?

Can I join you too??? I'll be flying out from Atlanta! It's my 3rd National Convention!!!

Can I join? I've been talking to GirlyXi on instant messenger for nearly a year now, it's be nice to put a face with the name...

On a slightly different note, was anybody disappointed with their room assignments? I signed up for a 4 person room (to save money, of course) but got put in a double =( Don't guess I can complain too much, at least I'll be rooming with my chapter Alternate - but it would have been so much fun to meet and room with other people...

You bet ... I'm looking forward to meeting up with all the Alpha Xi GC'ers and putting faces with names .... 19 days and counting....

see you'all soon is sunny Tucson!!

The more the merrier!!! So, we've got:

AZ-AlphaXi
flirt5721
GirlyXi
tcsparky
AlphaXiGirl
AXiDTrish
amanda6035
AXiD670

Paging NorthernAXD and SoProud2BeAnAlphaXi...

I'll try to remember to bring sticky name tags (you know that ones that say Hi my name is .. :0) .. so we can put our screen alias on it ...

Hi ... my name is AZ-AlphaXi ...... :-)

Mine should read, "Hi, my name is AXiD670, and I'm a GreekChataholic."

I'll be there!!
 

Sorry for the delayed response -- I haven't been able to check GC lately. Isn't it SO annoying when work gets in the way of sorority?

I'll see you all at the Hospitality Desk!

I was reading through some other posts, and have accidentally left some sisters off the list. It's exciting that there are so many of us from GC going to convention!

What about WarmFuzzie and NYCAXiD? If you two see this, make sure you plan to meet up with us next Wednesday!

For those of you who cannot attend, Mr. AXiD670 will be bringing his laptop since he'll have to remote in to his office to do some work while I'm in sessions all day. I'll try to log into GreekChat at least once to give an update...although I think most of us will be there! :)
