When people ask me what a sorority is like I often tell them that it is like an adult version of Girl Guides. Like many of you on this board I was a brownie, guide and pathfinder and worked hard to receive great honours, like the Canada Cord. Right from the time that I was in guides I was always interested in the leadership aspect of it, and that held true through my active sorority years. I say it is an adult version simply because you deal with more adult situations within the sorority versus guides or pathfinders, such as learning how to handle a budget or prep yourself for grad school. But other than that things are virtually the same - in guides you went camping; now we have retreats, etc. (I was never a ranger or cadet, so I don't know what sort of workshops you did at these levels).
