These are great ideas ladies! I am starting a new less stressful job next week, which is also located in Manhattan, so hopefully I will have more time to devote to planning. I like the idea for the Manicures and Martini's. Have you city girls found a good day that tends to attract people? I am thinking of doing it on a Tuesday. I figured, Monday is hectic with being back to work, and lots of people have classes on Wed & Thurs. A lot of us plan random stuff on the weekends too that is not necessarily sorority-related (like b-days) and people come to that kind of stuff also. I also wanted to tell you guys about an event I had that totally bombed. Stay away from theme restaurants! I thought it would be fun to go to Lucky Cheng's. Well, this is one particular event that a bunch of people signed up as "yes" and then never showed. It ended up being only three of us, and it was kind of uncomfortable and awkward being put on the spot like that and having to get up on stage with such a small group. Afterwards, one of my sister's shared that she had spoken with a couple of other alums who said they didn't go because they had been there before for bachelorette parties and once was enough. I would also be interested in networking with the other alumnae groups in the city. I have been meaning to get to a NYC Panhel event for the longest, but the fact that I haven't I guess is proof right there of what you are all saying about life getting in the way!
