APO stroll/step team... what do you think?

[GaiaGirl07]

Yeah. A lot of us are fully interested in creating a stroll team. Just the few that are interested (and have rhythm) will be participating. I thought it would be a good idea to reach out to other chapters (those who are interested) therefore creating a greater bonding experience between chapters. A lot of thought had creativity has to go into this. I have a lot to discuss with my fellow brothers. I thought feedback would be a good thing first!

Are you a Brother of Alpha Phi Omega?

Six of us in the DC area used to be on a step team, five from my chapter (Mu Alpha) and one from University of Maryland (Epsilon Mu). It really was a great bonding experience. This was back in 2001 or 2002, I believe. We never performed publicly, but it was a lot of fun and allowed us to use the fraternity to express ourselves culturally, like any brothers might in other ways. (Such as sectionals having a swing dance or how some west coast chapters have Asian traditions)
