Who is having Convention in 2010?
 
I know that we are, and that Tri Delta and Chi O are as well.

I was curious as to which other orgs are having Convention (or whatever you call it) this year?

Gamma Phi Beta is having their convention in Orlando this June.

RaggedyAnn 04-29-2010 06:55 AM

ASTalumna06 04-29-2010 07:23 AM

Alpha Sigma Tau will be in Birmingham, AL.

We're saying good-bye to our headquarters there ... which makes me wonder if we'll be saying hello to the new HQ in Indianapolis in 2012...

FSUZeta 04-29-2010 07:37 AM

ZTA in New Orleans in July.


ASTAlumna08, where in B-ham is your headquarters?

ASTalumna06 04-29-2010 08:52 AM

^^ I only know that the address is 1929 Canyon Road. Where that is in relation to anything else, I don't really know.

The Doral Golf Resort is very beautiful. I used to live right down the road from there when Doral was being developed. Enjoy your stay at the Resort. :)

We hold ours on the odd years; the Congress will meet next year in Kentucky. I'm already ridiculous excited to go. I've heard it is quite the experience.

Psi U MC Vito 04-29-2010 11:34 AM

Psi U has convention every year. This year we are holding it at the University of Illinois.

Munchkin03 04-29-2010 11:35 AM

I wish I had a reason to go to our convention. I'm not an involved alumna at all; it would be kind of fun to go.

AOEforme 04-29-2010 11:46 AM

Alpha Omega Epsilon's is in Louisville this year. I'm hoping to go! It would be my first as an alumna, which is super exciting.

I went last year when it was in New Mexico and it was the best. :)

You should go! It's a lot of fun. I was definitely going, but now I'm looking at the budget and trying to decide if I can swing it. I attend a lot of conventions for work, but AXO always blows them out of the water.

TPA85 04-29-2010 12:57 PM

Theta Phi Alpha's is in Nashville this year. I won't be attending this one but I will be at 2012's Convention because it's our 100th year!!!

I think there are only a handful of cities that have the convention center capabilities and transportation amenities required for a national sorority convention. If you look at the NPC sororities, you definitely see trends from year to year. Orlando is a very popular destination. A few years ago, everyone was in Palm Desert and Scottsdale. They also tend to be the same places that many large professional conventions are--New Orleans, Denver, etc. It's no coincidence, really.

Yep. We were in Scottsdale at Palm Desert in 2004. In 2007, we were at Opryland in Nashville. This year, Sheraton in Minneapolis.

Delta Tau Delta will be having its Convention (we call it Karnea) in Washington DC!

ASTalumna06 04-29-2010 04:05 PM

Our last few conventions:

2004 - Savannah, GA
2006 - Orlando, FL (which I attended... so much fun!)
2008 - Chantilly, VA

I'm jealous of those having convention in Nashville. If we have ours there, there's no way I'm going to miss it. I love Tennessee!

SthrnZeta 04-29-2010 04:45 PM

I'll be going to my first ever convention this year in Nola! So excited to spend 4 days with my sisters :) And we'll happen to be in D.C. when Karnea is going on so my DTD hubby may try to attend some sessions while we're up there!

That's a good reason to go, just to reconnect. I know the women planning our convention would be tickled pink if they had a lot of non-delegates there.

DreamfulSpirit 04-30-2010 11:30 PM

Omega Phi Alpha's will be in St. Louis, MO in July!

I'm an alumnae delegate and I'm so excited as this will be my first OPA convention!!
