I sure hope I can go - anyone else planning to try and attend?

Yes! I am planning to go.

Yes of course. It will be my 5th.

Lizz, we definitely need to meet while we are there!

It will be my second - I'm trying to get my mom to commit to go!

I really, really want to go, but I am not sure that I am going to be able to attend. If plans change, though, I'll be sure to let y'all know!

Has anyone here received a "Call to Convention" Packet yet? I received the Memorandum with rates and fees, but I was wondering when the packet was going to be sent out!! If you have gotten one, please let me know so that I can call IH for one! I know they have the right mailing address so....

I am going to do everything I can to be at convention this year! It will be my third & I'm very excited!

In the January Buzz from IH, they said the packets would be coming soon. And they usually post the packet on the website at the same time they mail them out to people. I'm guessing they haven't been mailed yet.

I have been debating with myself for the past several days on whether or not I should post this...

But, my excitement has most definitely gotten the better of me.

For any ladies who will be at convention, I would love to meet you. I'm going to be initiated as an AI at convention, on the 28th.

I am completely thrilled and humbled by this, and of course incredibly excited.

hello from Ottawa
longtime lurker just not a much of a writer
just wondering,
I've never been to a Convention or RLC or any official GPhiB thing like that... Have always wondered what it was like. Is it mostly meetings for Chapter and Intl Officers and such ? or is there stuff for an alumna to attend?

How does payment for attending Convention work? one all-inclusive price for accomodations/meals/registration fee or is all seperate?

Someone mentioned they were asked to be their Chapter's official "delegate". what does that entail other than voting as directed by your Chapter? would you have to make a presentation or something?will you get a discount on registration or some other benefit?

Congrats! That is awesome! I also initiated as an AI, but not at convention! The initiation ceremony there is so amazing....you're so lucky! I should be there, just need to get the OK from my boss to attend (99.9% change it won't be a problem).

Congratulations! My mom was initiated at the Chicago convention in 2004. It was amazing.

I'm planning on being there for at least part of this convention. It will be my 4th.

GeekyPenguin: I hope you can make it... it's been years since I've seen you! I'd love to catch up sometime.
