I'll be there- haven't missed one since 1991

"humming" This is convention number 1, number 1, number... this is convention #1, have you been to 2?? (A song we sing on the fun Old Timer's Night)

This convention is number 2, number 2, number 2...this is convention #2, have you been to 3? Then I sit down. LOL.

I am keeping my fingers crossed. My brother works for sheraton and will be able to get me a room at the hotel (if available), then airfare. And if I can do like I did in Phoenix, I'll try to just pay for the meals I want to attend instead of paying for everything. But we shall see.

Basically it all boils down to money. I close on my house in May/June so who knows. But I'm definately a saving!

it all depends on when i want to graduate and subsequently if i'll have to take summer school. but i really want to go.

No convention for me this year, I dont think the chapter will be sending an advisor this year. In addition to that I'll already be in Boston at the beginning of June for 3 graduations, so I wont be able to make it back at the end of the month. Plus convention falls right on my birthday and I would really like to spend that day with friends and family.

YIKES!!!

This is the first time I'm not going as an advisor, thus first time I'm paying my way. SO GLAD its drive-able and I don't have to fly!

This is Convention number four, number four... have you been to five? [ i sit]

I will be there...this is my first Convention! I am verrrrry excited! My chapter of initiation plus the chapter that I advise are both up for Golden Lion!!

ok so i really really want to go, but i was looking for more information on the website and not finding any. i seem to remember there being a schedule of events or at least a list of general activities on there last time around, and i'm just really curious what sorts of things to expect in trying to plan around summer school to go to convention.

i guess i'm looking for:
- what sort of timeline is typical. (i know it's wednesday-sunday)
- what things there are to do
- how many activities are usually open to the non-voting folks
- what the costs involved are typically like.

please PM me or post, because i'm really curious!
