We had groups like these at my high school. They were part of the YMCA and were Tri-Hi-Ys. We had 4 that had been at my high school since my grandmother went there: Doria, Dorcas, Delma and Delta. We also had ANCHOR. I was in Doria as was my grandmother, and my mom was in Dorcas when she went to the same HS. We actually got HAZED! Haha it's funny looking back on it now...
We would "try out" and we had to make a collage full of pictures of ourselves and go up to a room at the Advisor's house with the entire group staring at us and explain the collage. That was a Sunday afternoon, the next Monday earrrrrrrly in the morning the girls would wake you up if you got in and they gave you a "Birth Announcement" a bib and a rattle (They were nicknamed the Doria Dolls) and told you to wear a white t-shirt and overalls to school. At school we got to miss an entire period of class to get our hair put into pigtails and get freckles and blush circles put on our cheeks and we walked around all day with the Bib and Rattle. We had our matching t-shirts and sweatshirts we would wear on Spirit and Game Days. One year got sweatpants and a sweatshirt that had Doria Dolls on the butt. Ahhhh high school memories...
We did TONS of Community Service and Social Activities with the mens Phi-Hi-Y Digna. Hey it's the South, I can't help it! It is nothing like Sororities in college but it was a cool way to get involved in school.
