My chapter did/does a lot of road trips as the nearest AOII chapter is 6 hours away!

We would do the trip over our break (mid Feb) and drive from Calgary, Alberta (get out your maps now) to Long Beach, CA; Pullman, WA; Flagstaff, AZ; Boulder, CO; (these were all different years) (other than Pullman - all were about 30-37 hrs each).

We found it really expanded our concept of sisterhood and we learned tons of new stuff too (plus got us out of our 'bubble')!!

If you do want to go ....

1) Find people seriously interested (need reliable vehicles)
2) Determine a chapter/destination
3) Contact the chapter and see if they will be around/able to provide floor/sofas for sleeping, and do some sisterhood activities!!
4) Finalize details
5) Remember the road trip rules - "What happens on the road, stays on the road"
6) Don't forget to bring a thank you gift (something with your school crest etc, is always nice) - it goes a long way in a return trip coming back your way!!

Good luck!!

PS - To this day, I still love doing road trips to visit AOII's - good thing my husband does too
