Now, is it realistic? I can only hope not, but I don't doubt that our orgs have been screwed for much less.

If someone has another interpretation, please share.

However, lets say that sort of thing does happen. X number of sisters throw a party and someone ends up hurt/sick/dead. As I understand it, if you follow the risk management procedures of your GLO (such as contacting the appropriate people at HQ) you and your chapter will be covered by their insurance. In a way, this could actually protect you individually.
