Sisterhood

I have a question to ask all of you out there on this site. My sisters are everything to me and I fear the worst for them. There has been and I know that there will always be the usual bickers between girls; however, my problem is that I fear as though they are not going to recover anymore as they used to. I do not live in the house but I can even see the resentment that they are starting to have over one another. I was hoping that maybe one of you can give me some ideas for a sisterhood outing that I can call upon during one of our chapter meetings, in hopes that every one can learn to look forward and remember that we still truly care for each other, that's why we get on each other's nerves.

Thanks for your Time!

Here at Murray State we like to go to C.O.P.E. for officer and chairman retreat every year. It's essentially a high ropes course, completely safe, but it teaches you to trust your sisters and to work together. It also helps establish bonds because you do realize that your sisters do care about you. Also, tell them at a meeting that you chose each other. If it wasn't for every girl in that room, you all wouldn't be there.

We do things at the end of our chapter meetings that involve passing special objects from one sister to another. then that sister reads a letter to the one she gives it to about why she is such a great person, friend, and sister. This can be very funny as well as bring many sisters to tears. I know during that time we all feel positive and unified as a sisterhood.

hope that helps!!!!

Before every chapter meeting we pass around a bucket and people put little scraps of paper in the bucket with something funny/cute/interesting that happened during the weel... it ranges anywhere from one night we were trying to make new recruitment flyers and someone said a font had too much "bubble-age" to "hey so and so i hope you have a great week" it is an AWESOME way to end our meetings on a good note.

We had two things like this. First was Violet Basket. You can send sentimental little notes to sisters, and they are read aloud at the end of the meeting. We also had "Purple Feet", where you write down something funny or crazy another sister did, and "make fun" of her for it (by make fun I mean we teased and laughed and told the story in good natured fun)!
