We invited our mothers at the end of the week and go through each day and have conversations and welcoming and exiting with them. It helps us practice up on everything. This year I think they are also going to get together with another chapter, probably ASA, so each chapter can practice everything from House Tours to Pref night conversations.
We also do sisterhood activities to start off each day b/c our days are so loooooong. We need ice breakers and things to actually get us down to working together.
