I wish I could help you out, ilovemyglo...hopefully you will get to go someday! This post will only make you want to go more!!!

As for presents, they're really nice. In Denver we got a little photo albumn, a silver-engraved pin box (that was my favorite), at the Foundation Dinner we got a clock, and I forget what else we got...maybe we only get the big presents at the dinners. I know we get the bag, a pen, and a pad of paper too right off the bat. Anyway, it's all very fun! And one night each table had a whole cake in the middle decorated with red and buff roses - that's a lot of cakes!!! Also, they have the Rose Garden with lots (and lots) of stuff to buy.

I tell my chapter sisters that it's okay that they're not going to Atlanta this year...but then I tell them to please please please try and make every effort to go to the next one. I'm going to assume that the next Convention will be held in 2004 for the Centennial birthday? It would make sense to have it in Syracuse, wouldn't it? Wow, in 2004 we'll all be alumnae by then.

Hey Jenny, what was the menu like in Denver? I hear they serve lotsa chicken. They don't serve anything funky like seafood, do they?

It's nice that the attendees receive the gifts. It's nice to know that our $630 Convention Fee is going to something else other than room and food!

While I'm looking forward to Convention, I'm not really looking forward to the 7 hour flight to Houston...and then the additional 2 hour flight to Atlanta! We leave on the 4th of July so we can get there early morning on the 5th. When will you folks get there?

Visit Alpha Gamma Delta-Delta Sigma chapter and help some sisters out!

Yep, lotsa chicken. :-) Nothing too funky that I can remember.

I fly in and get there on the 4th...and my flight out of Boise is at 6 AM!!! AGH!!! But I will be too excited for it to matter.

Wow..we have two girls in our chapter from Boise. They've been best friends and next door neighbors since they were little girls. They made the big journey to Hawaii together...pledged together...and initiated together!

At least you'll be able to sleep on the 6AM flight. How long is the flight to Atlanta anyway? Our alumnae chapter president flies out of Hawaii at noon on the 4th and because it's a straight 9 hour flight to Atlanta, she'll get there at 5:30 AM on the 5th! Will there be sisters from the Atlanta area to meet conventioneers at the airport? Mary Lou said something about previous chapters doing that in years past.

[Bellejkp]

Yep, there are alumnae members posted at the Airport to help us find our way. You can't miss them, they're in AGD attire! Although, if she's getting in at 5am, that might be a different story. :-)

I fly from Boise to Salt Lake and from there it's about a 5 hour flight I think. I get a movie though, so I'm a happy girl!
