This year, my alumnae chapter is hosting at an amazing winery, resort, & spa. I'm excited about it.

Here are some pictures of the place. Living in Southern California sure does have its advantages!

I was debating going but now that I've seen those pictures the pro column is getting a little longer!

If you go, we can meet up.

VOILA! Founders Day has come and gone and I took some pictures to share with you ladies.


This is the picture of the winery. It looks exactly like the picture I found online previously. I almost laughed when I realized it. The place is gorgeous.







Mike painted the letters for us to have ready and here they are. Pretty!




One of the tables. You can't see them but the gifts we gave to each sisters were Sigma Kappa luggage tags as our theme was "Oh the places you'll go!" Everyone loved them and as my alumnae chapter hosted the event, I was lucky enough to "get" three luggage tags.




I have lots more pictures but I feel weird posting pictures of myself so instead, they are all on my myspace under Friends Only so look for them there. It's neat b/c you can see my SK pins and my SK lavaliere.-

Here is the picture of the luggage tags we gave as gifts.

BetteDavisEyes: Awesome pictures. I hope everyone had a great time! I would love for you to send the picture of the letters in front of the Inn to Virtual Violet so that others could see it. It would be perfect for Simply Sisterhood - Symbols and Sister Sightings. Just email it to virtualviolet@sigmakappa.org along with the details!
Thanks!

The collegiate chapter nearest me hosts a luncheon at the country club and have little games for us to play. Sometimes a sister will sing and there's a senior slide show. It's so great, and the ladies do an amazing job!
