I have so much enjoyed watching my daughter give her all this week and flourish! She rushed a girl from our hometown this week and to see her come running to the chapter today to meet my daughter and receive her goodies brought tears to my eyes - It will work out - Please post here with news as it happens!!

AuburnPNMmom, I'm so happy to hear that your daughter is having such a great time. Your story was what I thought of when encouraging COB. There is also the very exciting opportunity with KAT.

Just got back from AU. Wanted to give you an update. The weather was threatening, thunder, lightning and some light rain around 4:00 to 4:30. Sky started to clear, but by the time we got to the amphitheater area (where bids are distributed), rain began to fall and the humidity began to rise!!! Thankfully, it didn't downpour. More of a nuisance than anything.

This was my first time watching a bid day, and it was as advertised -- lots of screaming, yelling, jumping up and down and a few tears. Most of the girls I saw looked very happy.

Quota was 59, as has been said above, I think, and my daughter's chapter has 61 new pledges. Many, many out-of-state girls in the group, and my daughter did not know a single girl in her pledge class. But she knows several of the actives and seems to be thrilled to now be a member of................................................ ..........................................

Thanks to all of you for your support this week. It was nerve-wracking, to say the least.

AuburnMom08, I hope your daughter has a wonderful year at AU and gets very involved and seriously considers COB in the spring or the new colony Theta.

AuburnMom08, I'm sorry your daughter didn't find what she was looking for and I hope that she does look into COB or Theta. She seems like a very mature young lady and I wish you and her the best.
