The Workout
 

Have you guys heard that the Workout is going to become an annual thing, rather than bi-annual? I found out a couple of days ago when I got my Thank You letter for my Senior Challenge Contribution. In the letter, it said that the foundation was going to start making he Workout a yearly thing because it's been so successful. I think this is a fant-abulous idea, because the recruitment skills and such that are learned at the Workout SHOULD be a yearly thing - not every two years.

Now I just wonder if they are going to tie it in with Convention during convention years when it's not in Indianapolis, or offer it at a different time throughout the summer.

According to the website, the Workout will be held from June 15-19th at the Beta Pi chapter house at Indiana University in Bloomington, IN. The registration fee is $200.00 per member and covers the conference attendance, housing and meals.

There's no information about the itinerary, so I dont know what times to look fo travel arrangements for my chapter. For convention they usually tell you what time you must arrive by and cant leave earlier than, but I dont see anything about that for The Workout this year. Does anybody have any insider tips?

First, giving credit where credit is due... the Foundation provides significant funding for The Workout - and many other terrific programs for the Fraternity. However, National Council made the decision to make The Workout an annual event.

It is likely that the schedule for the workout isn't completely finalized. I am sure that staff does not want to announce one time and have to correct it at a later date.

If you need a start time right away, you should probably shoot an email to your AED as she has direct contact with the staff members that are planning The Workout.
