2011 recruitment bits and pieces

[OneHeartOneWay]

This thread is for little tidbits we want to share but that probably aren't worthy of a whole new thread all their own.

University of Louisville had first rounds last night, and right as the PNMs were before the 6th (of 8) parties, the sky opened up and it started pouring with intense wind gusts. The RCs started banging on the sororities' doors to let the women in early, which we scrambled to make happen. As they were walking in, the recruitment tent starts blowing away, a fairly substantial tree breaks, and the power goes out. I obviously can't speak for the other groups, but our women and PNMs were champs and kept singing and talking! when the parties ended (all conducted without any power) the PNMs all stayed in the houses, celebrate from the actives. They decided to push on with the 7 and 8 parties, without power. I heard that on top of all that, an alarm went off at one chapter, causing them to recruit over that noise!!!

I haven't checked in yet to see the status of power or recruitment for today- schedules to begin at 3. I still don't have power back at my house...yay recruitment!!!
