I have heard that bid day at Bama is a huge event where family is encouraged and welcome to attend. Bids will be distributed at a central location which should be posted on the internet site for the Bama PC. After they open their envelopes they go their chapter houses for a reception and pictures. There is no way to know ahead of time where your daughter will receive a bid. My advice to you would be to let her know that you are coming. Bid day was crazy at Auburn, there were so many people present that there was no way I could have located my daughter amidst the frenzy. Plus, she may want to have you there just in case she needs some support if things don't go the way she is hoping. I was able to spend the early part of the day with my daughter, taking her out to lunch and doing a little shopping to help the time pass until bids were distributed. Afterwards, she was busy with pictures and celebrating with her sisters. We had about an hour and a half afterwards to spend together, but she really wanted to shower before pledge night so I dropped her off early. What I am trying to say, is if you want to spend any time with your daughter, plan to do it before bids and not after. It is really fun to be able to share this moment with your daughter and we are very lucky at Auburn and Bama to be able to do so! Good Luck!
