Parents Clubs

HBADPi · #1 06-19-2006, 02:31 PM

I just spent 4 days at the ADPi training session and one of the topics that came up was getting parents more involved with the chapter. I really like this idea and I think it would work well with the chapter I advise but I'm a little stuck on the logistics.

Does anyone have a parents club with their chapter? What type of things do they organize/help with? How do you have it set up? How many parents are involved?

Any and all help would be great! Thanks!

ETA: Just found the new similar threads search after I posted so sorry for the new thread, however new ideas would be greatly appreciated!

We have a Parent's Club. They meet once a month at our house for about an hour. Invitations to join are sent in the mail every year oever the summer.

We moved to a new house last summer. It was previously occupied by a fraternity and needed a lot of work. Most of the parents helped move furniture, paint, work in the yard, and do anything else we needed.

Do you know how they are organized? (ie do they hold elections, appoint positions, etc)

No, they're just a group organized by our alumnae.

Hey HB-- contact the OCAA. They support Alpha Psi at USC and Alpha Psi has a parents club.

Do you mean the LA AA? OCAA only supports Zeta Alpha...
