Sisters Come Together for Chi Omega Convention
M
ore than 1,300 alumnae and collegiate sisters came together at the
Grande Lakes Resort in Orlando this past June for the 61st Biennial
Chi Omega Convention, and Mu was well represented. Chapter President
Taylor Andelman '14 and Vice President Tara Mullen '15 were joined
by Advisors Misty Tyree '65, Marva Sheehan '77, Susan Ruhne '85,
Dee Hawk Pearce '63, Leslee Budge '65, and house corporation board
members Buffy Cereske, Psi Alpha '74 and Elizabeth Adams '70. We
had much to be proud of as Misty and Leslee were honored and received
their 50-year pins with all of their Chi Omega sisters cheering wildly!
One of the highlights of the Convention had to be the model initiation
ceremony presented by the Epsilon Alpha Chapter, which brought to
mind the beautiful initiation ceremony Mu was honored to present at
the 2012 gathering. This year's Convention also marked the release of
Chi Omega's new visual identity, which includes an updated logo and
tagline #sistersonpurpose.
As you might expect from a National Chi Omega event, the weekend
was rich in content, masterfully executed, and a great deal of fun. Each
group participated in customized workshop tracks specifically designed
for their roles, and we all came back armed with new ideas, techniques,
and programing suggestions, which are already making a difference in
the house.
