Many thanks to the GC members who have helped along this process, either through answering questions or providing encouragement or modeling appropriate parental support for your legacy or posting exceptional accounts of their own stories… all that and more.
Especially: UVASquirrel, DoctorD, AlwaysSAI, AGDee, TrojanGal, FSUZeta, … plus lots of women IRL, a few of whom may be lurking here.
It’s been a long road traveled, but I’m delighted to report we have reached the destination, and the historic house that Rosebud ran home to is:
Ca’ d’Zan, the beautiful winter home of John and Mable Ringling, adjacent to the Ringling Circus Museum and the magnificent Ringling Museum of Art, in Sarasota, Florida,
which is
Gamma Phi Beta
Don’t mind me while I dash off to shop for pink carnations and crescent moons!
She was initiated this weekend and truly is over the moon for her Big Sis and her membership class.
She’s such a lucky duck with only 4 founders to memorize instead of 11. (JEF EGG MEG ME, anyone?)
And I’m thrilled that she might get to go to the 150th anniversary convention this summer! That is sure to be amazing!
While a corner of my heart wishes my daughter could have been an Alpha Gam like her mama and grandmama, I’m glad she found a home that fits her best.
And now we can celebrate the Syracuse Triad together!
Feel free to message me for more info.
If you like puzzles: when I originally wrote about the chapters at this school I was consulting a list that was chronological by founding date.
And the movie filmed on this campus, for better or for worse, was Sydney White. Not only was a sorority house one of the movie locations, the marching band that performed in the film was the actual university marching band which Rosebud loves with all her heart.
(PS - Sorry Cookiez!)
