So how are things going for our Beta hopefuls and transferees?

I'm in the process of deciding what my next step should be. My hubby and I will be moving in a few weeks, and I can't decide if I should transfer or Friendly Venture. I also don't know just how busy I'm going to be!

Who else has news?

Nothing here. I'm hoping it's just a slow time with the end of the "semester," and hopefully I can hear from someone in the autumn.

I got a call from someone in my town - unfortunately, I missed the call and got a message left, but apparrently it's a career chatper that meets once a month. I've called her back today, and hope to be able to attend a meeting soon and meet the other BSP'ers in my area. Wish me luck to see if it's a good fit or not!

I'm going to a meeting on the 13th. A 2nd chapter contacted me and they're having a meeting on the 13th as well, so I told them I wasn't available. The 2nd chapter who got a hold of me is finishing up their year, so I told the VP to keep me in mind for fall. The 1st chapter goes all year 'round. I'm very excited for my meeting!

I heard back from International again last week telling me they had entered me in the prospective member database and sent my information to chapters in my area within a 30 mile radius.

Hopefully I'll hear from a chapter not before too long

talked to the chapter president today - and I'm going to go to their meeting next Tuesday nite! She said it's a small chapter, 6-8 women - so I'm curious to see what happens after Tuesday...wish me luck!

Great updates!! I'm so excited for each of you.

daffodils...I'll be waiting to hear about your Tuesday meeting! How exciting. There are many benefits to a small chapter. Good luck!

amgn253...Have fun at your meeting on the 13. I'm so glad that you are a little closer to being a sister.

ThetaPrincess and Measi...hang in there!

Love, Erica

Hello there - went to my first Beta meeting last nite...

Chapter was missing two women - so there was a total of 6 present, including me....

A very laid-back chapter, meets monthly at various sisters' houses or at restaurants, does a service project monthly, but doesn't participate in City Council.

I got invited back to the June meeting, but unsure if I can make it yet b/c of work, but I'm definitely still interested....keep your fingers crossed!

Yaay Daffodils!

Glad to hear you had a good time!

erica812 · #10 05-12-2004, 11:09 PM

Laid back can definitely be a good thing!!

Glad you had fun.

I need to write my papers!!!!!!!!!

I went to my meeting last night and I had a good time. The sisters seemed really nice and friendly. We had a yummy dinner and went through the business meeting. They discussed upcoming socials and service projects. At the end of the meeting, the VP told me she would be in touch with me later this month.

I also emailed the other ROJ chapter I've had contact with asking if I could take them up on their invitation to a meeting. Their next meeting is the last meeting of the sorority year. I would like to see how they run their chapter. I orginally told them to contact me in August, but now that I've seen one chapter, I would like something to compare it to.

I have just been invited to next week's meeting and fun outing following the meeting with the Nu Epsilon chapter in Louisville. I'm so excited! I cant wait to meet the ladies of Nu Epsilon!

amgn253 · #13 05-19-2004, 03:13 PM

Have fun with Nu Epsilon ThetaPrincess! Let us know how it goes!!

I will be going to another meeting on the 27th with a different chapter. They will be doing officer installation and secret sister reveal at this meeting, so they asked me to dress up. This chapter is a traditional chapter, so they will not be meeting after the 27th until August.

The other chapter I met with on the 13th is a career chapter that meets year 'round. I'm really excited for the 27th!

Measi · #14 05-19-2004, 04:34 PM

No news here-- but since the traditional year is winding down, I've come to the conclusion that nothing much will happen until at least August, if at all. I just wish there were some sort of a chapter listing at internationals so I'd be able to find a place to start.

I'd love to FV a chapter, but I don't have seven female friends to my name to consider it.

Went to another meeting last night with a different chapter. It was fun, all the ladies seem friendly, but I felt I fit in better with the first chapter I visited. There are things about both chapters I like, I feel kinda confused. I'm waiting for the VP of the first chapter I visited to call, so I'll keep you posted!
