25/52 Cookout 2008

Are any brothers attending the 25/52 Cookout this year? And how have women brothers been treated at these functions? I am wanting to go but I want to find out what goes on there before I decide to give my money to reserve my spot.

*Forgive me if this has been asked before. I don't want to go through 29 pages of threads...lol*

I *should* be there. Not real sure yet.

I would encourage you to go. Just go and have a good time and do you. Check out the website if you haven't already (shoot me a PM if you don't have it). Lots of fun events Thursday-Sunday, and the majority of Saturday is a huge service project at Morris Brown College I believe. We're going to be hosting a fair for the neighborhood kids and having a school supply drive as well. Also it's not called the "Cookout" anymore. The name got changed to "25/52 Service Weekend" which I think is much much better. Ok, enough of the shameless plug BUT it's a very positive weekend overall.

As far as how women are treated, I can honestly say that it's not a big of a deal as people think. For example, I went to Tally last month and there was a cookout the following Sunday. There were some members there from FAU (and I think from your chapter as well). they wore letters, nobody gave it a second thought. They were treated respectfully from what I could see. You can PM me if you want and we can talk more, I'm not a member but I've been to a lot of these

I don't know how much has changed in three years, but this thread has garnered the most participation by bonafide A-Phi-Ques on the subject, but I hope this helps.

Well, I saw the pics from the gathering at Kappa Delta. Too bad, I was still pledging... Anyway, I have nothing to do while I am in the A for the summer so what better way to come chill. I am on the 25/52 Cookout group so I believe the site is there. But yeah, I would definitely like to know about more of the cookout. I'll note ya later.

I just responded to your PM. Hope it puts you at ease, so to speak.
Remember that you do have to register for it, so be prepared for that. Enjoy all of the events if you do come.
