Mother/Daughter Weekend
I was in charge of the Mother/Daughter Weekend thing last year and we have a huge weekend event with our moms. This past year it got screwed up a little because there was this Fraternity's Philanthropy that was the same weekend and we have one it twice in a row so, our girls couldn’t miss it.
But for ideas. The original plan was to have lunch somewhere probably at a nice resort and then go see Cinderella with our mom’s. And then on Sunday have a casual breakfast at a restaurant. The Sunday event has to be early because a lot of mom’s fly in. We ended up renting a room and having dinner and then playing a bunko game. It turned out really well. I also made candels for all the mom's/daughter's and found a sweet poems that laid on the table when they got there. There were tons of prizes too. Then on Sunday we went to a resort and had a buffet brunch.
In my chapter everyone is welcome to come but, normally only the girls with mom/grandmas that live here or come into town do. I like the idea of pairing a girl with an alumnae but, I am, not quite sure if that would work because each girl/mom has to pay for everything. Since our Mother/Daughter Weekend is new it is not yet added to our budget. In March/April this will be our third year doing it.
I also developed the first Father/Daughter Weekend for my chapter. SO, let me know if you need any suggestions.
