Regional Conference- Focused and Empowered Southern Region

chickenlittle · #1 06-25-2001, 02:29 PM

I am truly a different person after the Southern Regional Conference this past weekend.

My chapter (Iota-Pi Citywide/ Miami, Fl) was asked to escort the Executive Board during the conference. I had the honor of escorting 1st National Vice President- Esteemed Soror Rice for 3 days. It was an experience I will never forget. I can't even begin to describe the feeling.

One of my prophytes escorted National President- Esteemed Soror Boyd. She still thinks she was dreaming.

If you were there, let me know how it felt. Especially those sorors who were attending their first DST conference or convention.

Also, Let me know if you saw my chapter. We were the group of young ladies who were always walking in, late, after the processions. I was the short one with glasses

We also strolled in the stroll competition. We were the small chapter with the classy stroll

Also, a big OO-OOP to the sorors of Jackson State University, if there are any on Greekchat. They were also escorting sorors on the executive committees. You ladies represented Mississippi really well.

And, I saw you BeeJae. My LS attended your website workshop. She found it to be very informative. We were gonna take a pic with you. But, we were both afraid to ask.

Am I the only soror still in awe of regional conference experience?

Let me know

Hey Chickenlittle,

I'm glad to see that you made it back safely. Also it looks like your first conference was all that. Big ups to you and your chapter!!

Yes.. the SOuthern Regional COnference was exceptional!

From Soror Boyd's theme address (which will be available soon on tape!) to the Social Action Luncheon with Soror Sandra Jaribu Hill reminding us that "things haven't changed that much" to the closing banquet where much love was shared with the Regional Director and Representative, Sorors Walker and Tindall... it was great.

I even got to se my linesister of 24 years ago and her Delta daughter... and two of my big sisters and the chapter adviser...I, too, was very proud of my initiating chapter sorors (Delta Pi at Jackson State)... they also ran errands for us while we celebrated the birthday of the Southwest Regional Director (Cynthia Butler Blucher) in Soror Boyd's suite after the closing banquet.

I'm glad your linesister enjoyed my workshop... but I regret that she didn't ask to take a picture... Those who I did meet for the first time were amazed that my bark is is much worse than my bite (haha).

I guess it was kinda hard to miss me... I think I was the official photographer BY DEFAULT... and I got some great shots for the national website... stay tuned.

Those who are from FAMU will be happy to know that the Southern Region has ANOTHER Beta Alpha soror as Regional Representative - Soror Sharmen Sharelle Dailey (Spring 2000). She brought ME luck in the casino Wednesday night (screamed for me when I won and was too amazed to do so - HAHA) and then she won for Regional Rep on Saturday!

I REMAIN in awe...

Hello Sorors,

Unfortunately,due to a cancellation of my babysitter, I sold my registration. However, I was able to make it late Friday night. It was so overwhelming to be surrounded by so many Deltas. I met many sorors from all over the South. I also enjoyed spending this time with my mother. I can't until next year.
Chickenlittle, I'm sorry we missed each other!!

WHO ARE WE? ... WE ARE DELTAS!

The Southern Region Conference was simply beautiful. I had a wonderful time from the Step Show on Thursday evening to the Ecumencial (sp?) Service on Sunday morning. It was just wonderful to see so many of my beautiful sorors in one place. I can not wait until Atlanta. To those sorors who have not been to a conference, you definitely need to put it on your To-Do list.

I can't believe it Renee. I know exactly who you are. It's truly a small world. I saw you the entire time and never knew you were a Greekchat Soror.

I'll give my prophytes the message and will definitely keep in touch.

OO-OOP

Hey! There was probably a lot of Sorors there who are on Greek Chat! I invited your Chapter to our Neo's Probate in Sept! I hope you too can come..Of course you will have a place to stay!

Keep in Contact!

Sisterly,
Rene'e

Does anyone know if Jacksonville State from Alabama was in attendance at the conference? My best cousin is a Delta from that school and from what I seen they are a wonderful group of women.. They represent Alabama to the fullest.
