Homecoming

[chiobabe01]

I was just wondering what are some of the fun events that y'all have for homecoming at your school and if anyone votes for their Homecoming King and Queen?

um, we have small riots in a neighborhood called Forest Hills, we drink, we listen to music, go see a football game(!)...its usually pretty fun!

For homecoming, we have a breakfast party (bagels and juice) for our alumnae and the fraternity we have paired up with at our house. Then in the afternoon, we go to our designated tent and tailgate with our fraternity until the game starts. There is usually a spirit contest that gives out awards for best tent, most original Homecoming banner, most involvement, etc. Since I am not a huge football fan, I usually find the breakfast and the tailgating to be more enjoyable than the game itself. However, I will admit that going to the game is a lot more fun when I'm surrounded by sisters!

To tell you the truth, I wasn't that active in planning the Homecoming activities, so I am not sure about all of the details. I know there is the banner making contest, the tent decoration contest, and then there is a participation award based on the percentages of your members that attended and participated in various HC events. Oh, and you do not have to be paired with another GLO. Traditionally, yes, the sororities have paired up with fraternities, but since there are a lot more fraternities than sororities on my campus, most orgs. do participate on their own. So pretty much, the sororites and fraternities pair up themselves if they want to do so. I know that last year we almost had our own tent, but we found a group to pair up with at the last minute.
