The Southern Crescent Alum Panhel is hosting its 7th annual Sorority Information session on Saturday 29 March at 1pm at the beautiful Phi Mu HQtrs here in Peachtree City.

We invite area high school senior girls & their moms to attend. We always have some light refreshments and this year we are adding door prizes from the local spa and a cute local boutique. This year we are also inviting junior high school girls to attend if they want.
We also invite as many of our alums to attend as possible.
We always try to "tell it like it is" so the girls are clued in on how rush is in the south.
We also try to have a "notable" guest speaker - last year it was Emory's Greek Life director. This year we have the current NPC Chair coming! We also have some current sorority members whose homes are in the area come talk as well as one or two local collegiate Panhel exec members.
We have info forms the girls fill out and then they make as many copies as they need recs for - based on their college (in or out of state). They get everything to me by our deadline and I get everything sent out to the sorority alums in our association who have volunteered to write recs. Last year we did our first rec writing session and had a fantastic showing - many of the ladies in our assoc had not written recs in ages. We shared what - if anything - we knew about each girl and tips for how to phrase something in a rec. It was really a wonderful panhellenic experience and everyone is looking forward to it this year.
We basically try to do everything in our power to ensure the gals who rush from our area have the recs and info they need to have a succesful happy experience.
We used to help anyone who came to us - including a number of girls from metro/northside of Atlanta, but now we refer them to the Atlanta Panhel unless someone down here knows them personally. I do tell them if they cannot get any help to come back to me and we will try.
