Congratulations on your upcoming initiation! All the Gamma Phi Beta's that I have had the pleasure of meeting have been wonderful women, and I'm sure you are a great addition to their sisterhood! :)

YAHOO!!!! ANOTHER ONE FOR GAMMA PHI BETA!!!

Congrats to you! Cele (GPhiBLtColonel), another member of GreekChat, was my alumna initiation sponsor and big sister. Plus, several GCers were present at my initiation at last year's international convention. So, as you can tell from tinydancer's post, we Gamma Phis on GC are pretty tight-knit. :)

Welcome to Gamma Phi Beta!

.....Kelly :)

Congratulations on finding your home!

I have met some wonderful ladies of GPhiB--they all represent a true Panhellenic spirit. I would not have found my home without the encouragement of some of your sisters!

So excited to hear about all these good things!

Alright, since everyone else has posted their AI stories and I have never done mine I figure it is about time to go ahead and write my own.

After coming to the US my senior year of high school I really did not know anything about Greek life my freshman year of college. I had the opportunity to observe the Greek organizations during freshman year and was sad that I had not known anything and had not rushed. By my sophomore year, I was pretty certain I was not going to remain at College and was also way too involved with work and other activities to get involved. Later on I found Greekchat.com and learned about the alumni initiation opportunities that I was not aware existed prior. Being active Duty Army I had moved around a lot and never really got involved in anything “civilian” so I decided to look into pursuing AI. It was hard though, I didn’t know where to start so where better than GC. Because I was a transient to the WA area I had to start from scratch, I explored the local colleges web pages and the organizations that are big in the local area. A long time poster of greek chat’s points of view stuck with me and I later found out that she is relatively local to me (she knows who she is :D ) I researched her organization and loved everything I saw. Eventually in August or so I took the plunge and contacted the member close to me. We made arrangements to meet for lunch and then she took me to the local chapter and gave me a tour (it happened to be her chapter) We made arrangements to meet up again later on and for me to meet more members of the local alumni chapter. Since August I have attended several events with their chapter and have loved every minute of them. I am posting this now because I have an initiation date which is next week (Very excited) and thought it was finally time to post my story.

So next week, I will be a proud new member of Gamma Phi Beta.

Oh and thank you too SmartBlondGPhB (Melanie) who was my initial contact in the Puget Sound region :D

Catherine

Yep, I probably did........... :D

And I will also add that I think she is going to make a wonderful addition to our organization and our alumnae chapter.

Ahhh Melanie,
You're making me blush ;)

Yeah!!! Congratulations!!! I'm so excited for you. Thanks for sharing your story.

I wanted to be sure to congratulate you too. That is fantastic! Doesn't it feel great to finally find your way home?

I hope you'll continue to post here after your initiation and fill us in on life as a full-fledged Gamma Phi!

:)

Congratulations Catherine!

I'm an AI as of September '04. It has been everything I'd hoped for and even more! I know you will love being a Gamma Phi as much as I do.

:D

:) Thanks for the card too.........

May I be the first Fraternity Dude to give a Hearty Congratulations to You and The Ladys of GPhiB!:cool:

While you were unable to get the experiece as an undergrad, there is something that is extremely rewarding in dealing with Sisters of Your Sorority and other Greek Organizations.

Please enjoy and remember, the more you can put in, the more you will get out of it.:)

Congratulations to you and Gamma Phi Beta!!!

Only a couple of hours more...........:D

And can I just say, she willingly said yes when I asked her to help out our alumnae chapter. AND SHE DIDN'T EVEN ASK WHAT WAS INVOLVED. If only more alumnae were like that.:D :D

The time has come...

Did you get this badge?

Congratulations and welcome to Gamma Phi Beta! :D
