Dear AXO Parents,
Recruitment is right around the corner and many of the girls
are already spending countless hours planning to make this year the most
successful one yet. But as always, they
need our support! The chapter is currently in need of parent volunteers and
donations for Formal Recruitment. I have had the opportunity to assist behind
the scenes during several of the recruitment events. It was a fantastic opportunity to get to meet
other parents, get to know Mom Jane and Kathy better, and have a greater
appreciation for all of the hard work and dedication our daughters put into
this very important event.
This year, volunteers are needed for AM, PM, and full day
shifts on the following dates:
Wednesday,
August 6 (Open House Round Day 1) 9:30 - 5:45
Thursday,
August 7 (Open House Round Day 2) 9:30
- 5:45
Friday,
August 8 (Philanthropy Round) 8:30 - 7:40
Saturday,
August 9 (Skit Round) 9:15 - 7:30
Sunday, August
10 (Preference Round) 10:30 - 5:40
Monday, August
11 (BID DAY!!!!!) 10:00 - 2:00
In addition to volunteers, the chapter is looking for
donations. Currently, they need cases of
mini Ozarka water, ANY SNACKS, and $5-10 gift cards (Starbucks, Fuzzys,
WalMart, or any place in Stillwater) for prizes to use during the week. Let me
know if you are able to send any of these items!
If you are able to help in any way, please contact me at my
personal email lkfberger@gmail.com, the AXO Parents Club email at AXOparentsokstate@gmail.com , or on
my cell phone at 918-939-9924.
It’s also that time to renew your AXO Parent’s Club
membership. The new board is looking forward to working together to support the
girls! You can always contact me or the other officers (Kris Wilson, Vice
President, Sharon Casillas, Treasurer, or Patricia Rice, Secretary).
I would like to
encourage everyone to join the AXO Parent’s Club, as 100% of your membership
dues go directly into fun activities for our daughters. The annual membership fee is still $50.00 per
family, and we will make every effort to keep you updated as to how that money
is being spent. We are already planning
a Sundae Party during Spirit Week, providing donations for recruitment, food
for finals, a Christmas decorating party, and asking the chapter to provide a
“wish list” each semester to make sure we are supporting the CHAPTER and their
needs in the best way possible. We
still plan on doing fundraising through Parent’s Club t-shirts, Greek Spirit
wear, Mom’s day Auction.
We are committed to communicating to all active Parent’s
Club members through our blog, Facebook page and emails. We have updates from
all of our new officers, quarterly financial information, dates of upcoming
events at the house AND parent’s club meetings, club bylaws, and volunteer
opportunities. Please take a moment to check out the blog and
subscribe at: AXOparentsokstate.blogspot.com
and don’t forget to friend us on FaceBook (AlphaChi Omega Parents)!
I have added a membership form for the parents club above. We hope to have lots of moms AND dads
volunteer throughout the year, so make sure sign up to help and list those
special talents. You can return on Bid
Day or via mail to AXO Parents Club. c/o
Sharon Casillas, , Tulsa, OK . PLEASE MAKE ALL CHECKS PAYABLE TO AXO Parents
Club.
All of us on the board welcome your feedback. Again, please feel free to email the Parent’s
Club or contact me or other officers directly with question, concerns, or ideas
to help make this year great!
I look forward to seeing
you all in August!
Lisa Berger
AXO Parent’s Club President
