Summer Involvement

Flor, my AGD chapter doesn't have a house either!

In my chapter, we have many girls from the mainland who go home. In addition to that, some of our girls live on the Big Island and Maui and they'll occasionally go home on the weekends during the summer. During the summer, those of us left on the island will usually get together for birthdays, having barbecues at the beach or a pool, go out for dinner or just have a sleepover at someone's home.

Usually in mid-summer our chapter advisor will round us up for a philanthropy project. In past summers we helped out at the Art Academy and community fundraisers for Juvenile Diabetes. If we're lucky we're going to try and squeeze a car wash in to raise money for next semester.

Sometimes some sisters come back early or are here for a little while during the summer...I've opened my home to many of my sisters!

If at all possible, try to get together at least once a month (or even more!) with your brothers/sisters. It's not the same as during the school year, but that way you can all do what you need to do during the summer and still be with your Greek family.
