Sisters Race to Indianapolis
for National Convention Nearly 400 collegians and alumnae accelerated into the fast lane during Alpha Xi Delta’s 47th National Convention, June 27-30, at the downtown Indianapolis Hyatt Regency. The green flag dropped Wednesday night as sisters and guests gathered for the Welcome Banquet to renew friendships, meet new people, and hear inspiring words to get their motors started. The nonstop action continued through Saturday evening’s Rose Banquet as Woman of Distinction recipients were honored and the Fraternity’s new National Council was installed. If you weren’t able to join us in Indy, these highlights will help you experience the action at Convention ’07.
Sisters gave a farewell kiss to National President Debbie Fenwick Maas before the new National Council was installed.
During the community service event, sisters read the storybook What Can I Do? to children at Indy’s John H. Bonner Community Center. The center received $1,800 worth of books through a grant from the Atlanta Alpha Xi Delta First Book Advisory Board. More than 400 books were also donated by Convention attendees.
