I'm not currently a member of my local alumnae association-- I'm in grad school about an hour and a half away from many events, so I'm waiting until September to re-up! -grin-
Anyway, these were some of the events that they had each month for the past year and a half:
Christmas Cookie Exchange (duh!)
The Cuban Experience (sister described trip)
Origami Art plus Dress for Success (donating old suits)
Potluck Dinner plus Pop Tab Collection
Pool Party
ADPi Great America Day
Pre-Mother's Day meal at RMHC
Local Chapter Founder's Day
Handling Your Finances
Bonsai Cultivation plus Flower Sale Fundraiser
Margaritaville Party
Initiation Robe Sewing Party
Attendance at RMHC Benefit
Speaker from Hospital on Meditation
Cookie Exchange and Game Night
Tea for New Initiates at Another Local Chapter
Soap Making
Poinsettia Sale Fundraiser
Pottery Painting Party
[One that I didn't list was a party/meeting where a professional chef cooked tasty menu items right in front of us, passed around samples, and provided copies of the recipies. Like some events, there was an extra $10 cost to bring the guy, but it was worth it!]
Charity stuff could involve you hooking up with any local organization that needs assistance, from singing carols at a nursing home to assisting at a women's shelter or donating items to a food pantry or veterans' org. And of course anything that benefits the RMHC is cool, too.
Social: DATE PARTY! Woohoo! Okay, maybe not. -grin-
