Summer Retreat!

This summer 2011 we had our retreat at RedBarn Retreats in Garden City, MN. (http://redbarnretreats.com) 

The ladies of ∑∑∑ EP really enjoyed themselves. Lots of business was taken care of, as well as lots of fun!

"I really enjoyed retreat, it was great to see everyone after the long hot summer!  The best parts were our fun breakout sessions when we got to do games and activities together, playing "mafia" the card game, and of course the pedicures from Christina's sister!  I think that it was the right way to start off this fall semester, keeping our goals and values in mind and getting us excited about recruitment."
  Sara Tauer, new member class Fall 2010.

One of our sisters, Christina Miller, had her sister come and do pedicures for the sisters! What a great way to unwind after all that planning! :)

"I had a lot of fun at retreat, it was nice seeing everyone that I have not seen over the summer.  I was able to get to know more of the newer members.  Retreat to me was a way to get excited for the upcoming recruitment.  It made me excited for the upcoming school year and motivated me to get ready for what was ahead in the school year.  Also, the pedicures were a great way to end the night after a long day."
  Jessica Krueger, new member class Spring 2010.

Inspiration Week

Hey, everyone! 

I am so proud and honored to let everyone know that we initiated 6 wonderful new members and 4 moms this past weekend.  We had a great Inspiration Week full over events including our popular Family Olympics, Unity Night and breakfast get together among other things.  The last event before Initiation was a bonfire held at one of the sister's home which she opened up to us. 

Here is a quick week in review with pictures:)  Love!

DAY 1:  Unity Night

This was an event planned from the New Members to the chapter members.  We took photos with each other wearing purple accents.

DAY 2:  Family Olympics

Each family participated in fun non-competitive events.  Musical chairs and carrying eggs in mouth are pictured here.

DAY 4:  Family Dinners

Sigma Formal

We recently held our semesterly dance at the Kato Ballroom last Friday.  There was no theme so sisters were not constraint to specific dress.  We had a delicious dinner (Chicken with mashed potatoes, green beans and cupcakes) starting at 7 pm followed by awards from our Spirit Chair and her helpers:)  The music started and off to a great memorable night.  Here are some pictures of the night:
