Committee ideas or suggestions

[annice22]

I thought this thread would be for getting or giving advice for our different committee positions.


I am the health and fitness chair and I was trying to think about different things that I could do. What I was planning on doing was creating h&f buddies for the sisters and give the girls health information at the meetings.

Aside from that I can not think of anything else that I could do. Does anyone have any suggestions or advice for would work.

i have never heard of this committee! wow... interesting...

well, you could do a q&a session of different health & fitness related topics. have it like the "h&f jeapardy" or something.

you could have a h&f tip of the day/week.

awards for the most improved h&f sister.

i'm sure there's tons more, but i'm not quite sure what's the meaning behind your position... can you clarify it for us?

When I was Health and Wellness Chair, every couple of months I had a "guest speaker" come to an informal meeting and give a seminar on different health issues. At our campus, there are many University-health organizations (such as student health services, counseling services, etc.) that are happy to come give a talk to a campus group. Also, local police stations will come and give Alcohol Awareness seminars.

Well according to my sorority's constitution this is what is stated:

Health and Fitness shall be responsible for informing the chapter of any health issues she feels are important to be discussed.

I am also the Risk Management for Phi Sig also. So some of my topic or interests could go for either position.

Our Health and Wellness (who's also risk management) tries to do at least one self defense night with the women - usually try to co-ordinate either with campus police or the Womyn's centre.

She also keeps us up on what's going on as to spectator's sports. And soemtimes arranges really informal sports nights (just kicking arounda ball, or whatever)

Something on ALcohol awareness is always good. (I know there's trivia games out there and such that can make it fun and I believe my chapter even had a copy of some cd-rom computer game on alcohol awareness.
