Hi Everybody,
*Hi Candice*
I hope all those that got to attend Tri-Sectionals this past weekend had an enjoyable time. I know that I had a great weekend. For those that didn't attend below are some highlights: - We voted and determined that the next Tri-Sectional conference will be hosted by Eta in Northern Illinois University in Spring 2010.
- We adopted a 47/50/51 Conference agreement. Click here to see the approved document
- We amended the Section 50 Policies and Guidelines to ensure that chapters need to be in good standing when being awarded Section 50 awards.
- We raised and donated money to multiple worthy charities but I still took a pie in the face :-)
- Reminders about the upcoming Section 50 Fellowship hosted by Alpha Alpha on April 25th 2-4PM
- There will be outdoor games, food, APO Stroll, fun and much more
- Driving directions to the exact park location will be emailed out
