Touring other GLO's HQs

ZetaPhi708 · #1 12-28-2013, 12:05 PM

With the rich and diverse history of all of our organizations, which we often find online nowadays, does your organization's HQ allow, with proper notification, a person of another GLO to get a tour of your HQ, at least the portions detailing the history of the GLO?

Sure. We love to show off Executive Offices and the archives area.

Great question! I'll look into this for my org.

Phi Mu HQ has been very gracious in allowing the local Alumnae Panhellenic group to hold events.

Ms. NinjaPoodle, I found a very interesting article about one of your GLOs most honored and respected sisters, and about the quest to find her Academy Award. It's a rather lengthy article but is very well done.

The article is about 2-3 years old now. I don't want to reveal the results of the quest, as some may have not read the article yet.

Thanks for this. He may already be aware of it, but I'm going to forward this to Soror McDaniel's grand nephew.

Nyapbp took a tour of DKE's HQ this year when she was in Ann Arbor for the Pi Phi chapter's centennial celebration. My chapter had a formal at the "Deke Shant" when I was an undergraduate, but this was before it became their HQ. It's a mysterious, old building with lots of symbolism.

Also, I haven't gone yet, but Sigma Nu's HQ is in the same town where my daughter goes to college, and I've been told we should visit. It's a beautiful antebellum mansion on a hill.

I've toured our HQ. From our website, it appears anyone can take a tour. There is even a virtual slideshow on-line. http://www.gammaphibeta.org/aboutus/...alheadquarters

I've toured the headquarters of Alpha Delta Pi, Alpha Omicron Pi, Chi Omega, Delta Delta Delta, Kappa Delta and Phi Mu. I always contacted them ahead of time, and in every case was warmly welcomed and given a personal tour. I highly recommend it!

I am DYING to get to Indianapolis . . .

GPhiB has one beautiful HQ, Ms. Sciencewoman. That slideshow was very well done.

Here's a link for the Chi Omega HQ slideshow and contact info for a tour, when in Memphis!

Aside from our Gamma Phi Beta HQtrs, I have toured my son's fraternity HQtrs - Alpha Tau Omega - in Indianapolis, as well as my (biological) sister's sorority HQtrs - Kappa Alpha Theta - also in Indy. I live in Peachtree City and have been numerous times in Phi Mu's lovely HQtrs since they let us hold our annual sorority information sessions there. And when I first moved here in 1998 after retiring from the Air Force, I got to see Alpha Delta Pi's Hqtrs in Atlanta. I want to do more!!!!!

Please put the Delta Gamma Executive Offices in Columbus, OH on your list to visit. Our Executive Director, a DG, is a retired Army general and would, I'm sure, welcome your visit!
