Our in house facility at EO only holds 15 so only Council meetings and boards, small groups meet there.

All of this is pretty much the same for AST. We hold convention once every two years in the even numbered years. In the odd-numbered, we have Officers Academy. Just a couple weeks ago, we held the first Advisors Academy, which was in Chicago; I don't know how often the sorority plans to hold this event.
ETA: We also hold annual Regional Leadership Workshops, which last only a day. As their name suggests, they include all the chapters in a particular region.
