Convention 2004, 100 yrs of AGD: Info Thread - Page 9

scullyAGD · #**121** 02-10-2004, 10:40 PM

Ok, I have a little Convention questions for you ladies....

I'm trying to figure out the cost for Convention, and what I can conceivably afford considering my zero income and school and everything....but I reeeeeeally want to go, and am pretty much set on going, I'm just hoping there is some less expensive way that I am missing.

So my question is, if, for instance, I just wanted to attened the banquet and Initiation & the other rituals on the second day, would I still need to pay $260 for the day? I see on the registration form that we can reserve a spot at the meals, but that's it. Sigh...

I really want to go but, man, this is pricey! Oh well...
(Donielle, you'll probably get an email from me soon....we need to get our little posse togther so we can discuss)
Anyway, if anyone has any info based on past Conventions about registering for specific events, I'd love to hear it!
Thanks!

I would email Deanna at dconaty@alphagammadelta.org and ask her if you attend the Epsilon Pi banquet, if you can go to the events following it as well.

I am assuming this is the other Wendi... I get so confused!

Yes, you are correct. It is waaaay too confusing having 4 Wendy/i girls on this board!

OK, I'm officially officially going to convention. I just received an email regarding the fashion show!

I hope I'm not too small and the clothes fit.

Better to be too small than a fat heffer like me.

LOL you're too much. I made a Costco run yesterday and brought back tubs of ice cream and gigantic boxes of cookies and candy...ugh.

I told myself that I was going to try and lose some weight before Convention so I could fit into my original Initiation white muumuu. I have a feeling that won't happen.

I wanted to be a convention model, but they asked for size 6 and below. Oh well.

We voted on paying for members to go to Convention in EC just this past week and from what I remember it's around 800.00?? 600-800 I know and that's probably not for transportation because Chicago is only 4 hours away from us. Hope this helps--I'm new to this!

AGDLynn · #**132** 02-19-2004, 10:06 PM

Have you done the Roll Call thread yet?

Yea, the cost of convention will definitely depend on if you are staying at the hotel and how many roommates you want/can find, lol.

See ya!

So the whole convention is not going to be feasible this time but I was thinking about making the trip for Epsilon Pi night... has anyone done this before... could you tell me what you thought about this option. Chicago is only 6 hours from me and if I can talk the boy into making the trip or even my mother maybe then I wouldn't have to make the trip alone... plus I maybe able to get my mother to flip the bill with me!

Hello Ladies! My name's Kelly and I am new to this board, I am a member of the Zeta Gamma Chapter of Alpha Gamma Delta, and the Vice President of Recruitment. I am 90% sure i will be at convention, and I can tell you that I dont think I've ever been so excited about something in my life! I look forward so much to meeting new Alpha Gams! Yay AGD!

Okay if you were going to attend only one dinner which would it be... EP or Feast of Roses? Also does anyone know if the after events are included in the cost of dinner?
