any ideas??

Hey all, I'm hunting around for some good ideas for Brotherhood Events. Like retreats..good bonding events...If anyone has any good ideas, i'd love to hear 'em!

For my active chapter's spring retreat, they participated in a ropes course. Alumnae were invited to join. Typically, their are two types of ropes courses. The low impact works teambuilding, trust, while the high ropes course challenges the self. Even as an alum, I found the retreat very rewarding.

Another idea is to go camping. A place were people can relax. Before you leave agree on a goal to acomplish.

Sometimes the best place to start for bonding and brotherhood activites is your ritual. (Granted yes, this sometimes does limit who can participate based on approach to initiated members) Things from discussion the different aspects of what your brotherhood stands for to how a brother best relates to the values/ideals.

Our mentoring group goes down in Aug. just before Sem. starts and holds meetings with the Chapter.

One nite go out for dinner toghether, and one night just kicking back a little partying and getting to know each other on a more personall basis for bonding with the Alums!

there is also a summer canoe trip for Alums and Actives to get together .

An Alum has a yearly Peirce Stock gathering 4 th of July!!!

Just some thoughts!!!!
