To Dragma/SUMMER 2001
The 1999-2001 biennium has been one of accomplishment. Upon the recommenda- tion of the Structure Evaluation Committee, a change in collegiate chapter supervision was made by combining the four separate collegiate networks into one comprehensive network. The change will beformallyimple- mented with the proposed bylaw revisions before Council, but immediate implementa- tion was necessary in order to provide improved support to our collegiate chapters. Recent evaluations reflect that the change has been successful.
Several publications have been revised including the Alumnae Chapter Operations Manual, the Collegiate Chapter Operations Manual and the BRIDGES New Member Program. In addition, a new Colony Development Manual was developed pro- viding improved support to volunteers and staff working with collegiate colonies.
In an effort to provide our collegiate leaders with a clear understanding of chapter expec- tations, the Standards of Excellence were developed and the convention awards process revised. These new formats allow for a larger number of chapters to be recognized with awards.
Extension efforts have been successful in both the collegiate and alumnae depart- ments. Six alumnae chapters were installed this biennium, six petitions have
been submitted for approval and 22 alum- nae groups are in various stages of organi- zation/reorganization. We welcomed three new collegiate chapters: Lambda Omicron, Cumberland U; Epsilon Gamma, U of Northern Colorado; and Pi Theta, Florida International U. In addi- tion, we were thrilled to re-install Beta Phi, Indiana U.
This spring we dedicated our new Headquarters building and further strengthened AOII's commitment to pro- viding opportunities to generations of young women. Because training is an important facet to the development of strong chapters and effective leaders, our new home includes a Leadership Center and Conference Center equipped to hold specialized training for chapter officers. Our collegiate chapter presidents had the dis- tinction of being the first group to utilize our beautiful new home as they gathered in March for AOII's first Leadership Academy. To build upon this successful new training opportunity, two more Leadership Academies will be offered dur- ing the 2001-2002 academic year.
The 1999-2001 biennium has been a busy- one as many dynamic changes were made and even more exciting plans were formu- lated to ensure AOII's success. Thanks to you, our members and volunteers, for help ing us as we continue to achieve success.
Fraternally,

OurNew Home
The year was 1925. Elizabeth Wyman became the first salaried AOII Registrar and established the first AOII Central Office in her family's home in Bloomfield, New Jersey. It was a big step for AOII. Previously, for years, Stella Perry had been storing records in a little black tin box with AOII lettering. The first official office was nothing more than a corner of Bess' bedroom at 456 Broad Street but it was a begirining.
For more than a quarter century, AOII had been without a place to call home. Those early years were a time of rapid growth, and it became evident that a place was needed to organize the fraternity records and centralize cornmunications. Over the next 75 years, AOII would relocate 13 times, keeping pace with the fraternity's growth and the changing world.
In 1928, the Wyman family sold their home, and Bess relocated Central Office to a small room in an office building down the street at 50 Broad Street in Bloomfield. Central Office moved to State College, Pennsylvania, on September 1,1930, where Grand Secretary Edith Huntington Anderson resided. Registrar Sara Alice Cullnane, Assistant Registrar Janne Nichols and Edith operated out of the office in the Masonic Building, Box 262, for more than 10 years.
On August 1,1940, Central Office was relocated to larger and more accessible space at 68 Washington Square South, New York, NY. There, Sara Alice Cullnane was appointed AOII's first Executive Secretary.
Central Office moved again in 1943 to 15 North Campus Avenue, Oxford, Ohio, just outside the Miami U campus at the Phi Kappa Tau Central Offices. Phi Kappa Tau's operations had been downsized due to World War II. AOII used two offices and shared the boardroom with the men. In 1946, the Phi Kappa Taus returned from war, and AOII moved into an apartment uptown in Oxford, Ohio. The new
office, located at 10 1/2 East High Street, had two large rooms and a small dtree- room apartment in the back, which was often rented to AOIIs.

By 1948, Central Office moved to a new home on 112 South Campus Avenue in Oxford, Ohio. This was the historic home of David Swing, who was an orator, preacher, and leader in the anti-slavery movement The house, which was build in 1857, provided larger space for the growing fraternity.
In 1953, Central Office moved from Oxford to 1109-11 18 East Fourth Street, Cincinnati, Ohio. The move to a larger city gave Central Office better mail and parcel post service, better office facilities and more accessibility. In 1956, the space was leased in Suite 601-4, Six East Fourth Street in Cincinnati. At that time, thefraternityhad a staff of four.
Central Office moved from Cincinnati, Ohio, to Indianapolis, Indiana, in 1967 because AOII was preparing for its January 1968 incorporation in the state of Indiana. Central Office was required by law to be located in the state, so AOII set up operations at 3000 Meadows Parkway, Suite 109. At the time, Indianapolis was the home of the central offices of 10 other Greek organizations.
At the 1969 AOII Convention, Council passed a resolution to establish the Central Office Acquisition Fund, which was designed to help find and purchase a permanent headquarters location for the fraternity.
In 1975, the Executive Board voted to expand the role of Central Office. Prior to then, the small staff had mostly maintained membership and financial records and distributed mailings. The new responsibilities placed on staff would relieve volunteers of routine duties. To further emphasize the new role, Central Office was renamed Internationa] Headquarters in 1976 and moved from Indianapolis to office space at 2401 Hillsboro Road in Nashville, Tennessee. The chief staff member's title changed from Executive Secretary to Administrative Director. Adele Kuflewski Hinton resigned from the Executive Board to accept this position. Operating methods were improved, and more ttaining for volunteers was established.

To Dragma/SUMMER 2001
A major step for the fraternity was the purchase of a buUding. Having rented space since 1925, the move allowed for more storage space and a display area for the fraternity archives. Six full-time and three part-time staff members moved into a renovated building at 3821 Cleghorn Avenue in Nashville, Tennessee, in November 1981. Equity earned on this building enabled the fraternity to take another step and design a headquarters building. The International Headquarters and Conference Center was dedicated on October 7, 1989. Located at 9025 Overlook Blvd., Brentwood, Tennessee, the first floor housed the administrative offices and archives, and the second floor housed the Conference Training Center and nine bedrooms for overnight training of volunteers. The facility was originally operated by 14 full-time and two part-time staff members.
Over the next 10 years, the fraternity membership grew by 25,000 members; the archives multiplied as the fraternity made concerted efforts to collect and preserve our past: and the AOII Emporium grew in volume by more than 600 percent. By 2001, the AOII Fraternity and Foundation employed 25 full- and/or part-time staff members. Having vastly outgrown the current facility, a feasibility study was conducted and determined that moving to a new location would be more cost- effective than attempting to add on to the existing building. The lack of available surrounding land, the current building configuration, and the city buflding code requirements were all insurmountable obstacles to renovation.
The building sold quickly, a beautiful new location was purchased, plans were designed, and construction got under way on April 24, 1999. AOII Headquarters made its last move on February 28, 2001, to a magnificent new home located in scenic Maryland Farms office park in Brentwood, Tennessee. The 32,000 square- foot facility features a climate-controlled archival library and museum, a state-of- the-art Leadership Center for up to 100 members, a Conference Center for up to 50 members, and an Executive Board Room for 14. Through innovative technol- ogy, all three areas are networked by "smart boards," allowing one facilitator to administer training to all three rooms and for interaction among rooms as needed.
The AOII Emporium now has a storefront and additional space to further strengthen its place as one of the premier Greek merchandising programs. Much

needed space has been added to the AOII Foundation, AOII Properties, colle- giate and alumnae services, computer services and publications offices. A full basement offers plenty of storage space for all areas. Importandy, flexibility has been build into the design to assure that the building will adapt to the changing needs of our organization.
The exterior combines elements of classic Greek architecture with the appeal of a colonial home. AOII's Centennial Walkway and Founders' Circle bricks have been carefully moved and relayed, now accented by a beautiful jacqueminot rose garden.
But as magnificent and progressive as the new International Headquarters Building is, AOII remains ever committed to preserving our history. For pre- dominately displayed in the new archival museum is a little black tin box with AOII lettering. Time has added a few dents and scratches for character. It was onceAOII'sfirstCentralOffice,holdingallthefraternity'smemories. Nowithas become a memory in itself.
Dedication Ceremony
International President Carole Jurenko Jones and members of the AOII Executive Board and Foundation Board participated in a ribbon cutting ceremony to formally dedicate our International Headquarters on Saturday, April 21, 2001. With approx- imately 300 alumnae, collegians and special guests in attendance, the beautiful new building was open for tours preceding and following the ceremony. Visitors also enjoyed the commemorative brick walkway and rose garden throughout the after- noon. Later that evening, a celebration dinner was held at Richland Country Club in Nashville. Alpha Omicron Pi's new International Headquarters is located at 5390 Virginia Way in Brentwood, Tennessee.
To commemorate this special occasion, a collectors ornament is available from the Emporium. The brass ornament features AOITs neiv International Headquarters Building and a headquarters historical timeline.

The woman who wrote the first book on stretch exercise in 1969, and who came out with the popular video "Moving to
Mozart" is charging that "America's Phys Ed Style of exercise is
the very reason the U.S. is experiencing an obesity epidemic."'
After years of teaching and writing about exercise from the venue of the classical dancer, Ann Wheeler Smith, Omega
(Miami U), is taking on the exercise establishment
This soft-spoken, articulate AOII in her 70s is trying to change the course of exercise and bring logic to the subject
by telling people to think for themselves and take charge of their own health.
"It is becoming one big bureaucracy of trendy hype-health clubs, persona] trainers, classes, machines and accessories. It
would be justified if it was working, but it's not Americans are getting bigger and bigger. The problem is our exercise scien- tists are trained in, and perpetuate, their sports conditioning
style that has no relevance to the majority population."
Ann believes that the government is part of the problem. "Football coaches, Olympic stars, astronauts and Schwarzeneggers are appointed figureheads of The
President's Council on Fitness and Sports, and they represent the same exercise style. It's meant well, because we adore
our heroes, but it sends the wrong message. What percentage of our population is actually headed for the NFL, the
Olympics or lives as movie muscle men? Is that the exercise most people really need? I don't think so."
A classical dancer who adapted the basic stretch exercises of the ballet and modern dancer to the non-dancer s body, Ann
Smith wrote the first book on stretch exercise in 1969. Since then, she has written four more books on exercise,
including a reissue of "Stretch, Celebrity Exercise" and many articles for magazines like Seventeen, Ladies Home
Journal, health and education publications plus newspaper syndication, radio, television, and guest teaching through-
out the U.S. and Europe.
Caging Gracefully
Ann Wheeler Smith helps others look and feel their best
She regularly teaches the dancer's stretch exercise in the Washington, D.C., area, where men and women of all ages and body conditions take her classes for health, figure improvement, plea- sure and physical therapy. She teaches basic understand- ing of exercise as a natural body function equal to eating and sleeping, that people can implement into their lives through natural, daily movement patterns that will maintain their basic good health. She then teaches people how to determine which
movement style will give them the visual image they aspire to have.
In 1997, she started putting her work on video with the production of "Stretch Exercise with Ann Smith,*' also marketed as "Stretching for Seniors." Their success led to the two-volume edition of "Moving to Mozart" in 1999 and "Rise and Shine" to be released in September 2001. Her videos have been picked up by a major distributor and will be available most everywhere this fali Until then, they are available from Amazon.com, Transitions for Women (1-800-888-6814), Acorn
(1-888-870-8047) and through other catalogs.
In addition to her teaching and lecturing, she is also working on an mterdisciplinary Master's degree at American U in Washington, D.C., to formalize her interest in Physical Fitness and Aging. She is a member of the Fifty-Plus Fitness Organization in Palo Alto, California, and a consultant for the Center for the Study of Aging in Albany, New York. In her personal life, she has been married 50 years, has three children and seven grandchildren. Two sisters were also members of Alpha Omicron Pi. Older sister Mary Lou Wheeler Omeis is also an Omega Chapter (Miami U) member, and younger sister Martha Wheeler Monnett is a

Classic Exercise for an Ageless Body
'America's Phys Ed Style of exercise is the very reason the U.S. is experiencing an obesity epidemic."
teaches fier technique
Rise and Shine
To be released in September. "Rise and Shine" is aimed
at the concept that if you do just a few minutes of exercise every
morning before dressing, it is easy to make exercise a daily habit This fun video is presented in seven 3-4 minute sections to correspond with the seven days of the week. Instead of the usual tights and leotard presentation, Ann presents
these video segments in pajamas.
Moving to Mozart
This two-volume set is classic exercise for an ageless body. Ann states, "Mozart believed that music shoidd be pleasing to the ear. I believe that exercise should be pleasing to the body. Combine the two, and you've got something that works for everybody." These videos teach relaxation, alignment breathing, flexibility, stretching,
strengthening, proportioning and body style.
Stretch Exercise With Ann Smith
Also released under the title "Stretching for Seniors," this was her first video. The exercise is slow, continuous
stretching that flows from the inside to create a healthy, well-proportioned body with muscles that are taut rather than bulging. It's painless, easy and energizing, and it works for any age, sex or body type. It's especially good
for older people and those with arthritis or osteoporosis.
Exercise After Breast Surgery - Moving With Grace and Pride
This innovative 14-minute video is designed to help women recover their range of motion after breast surgery and aid in aUeviating the affects of cancer treatments, chemotherapy and radiation. Ann has taken her own personal experience with breast cancer surgery and developed this recovery program
to help others struggling with trendy aerobic methods. Used two to three times per week, this video can benefit women even if their surgery was years ago. The routine opens the chest keeping the muscles toned and stretched. This video is currently available directly

Calgary
One of our favorite events was on financial planning. A professional spoke on how to wisely invest our money and increase our dis- posable income.
Central NewJersey
We hold a popular "Murder Mystery Dinner." We've found a restaurant that hosts a local theater group. While they serve you dinner, the troupe performs an interactive play. Everyone enjoys the entertainment while socializing with our families and friends. Our "Goody Bag" meeting is also popular. Everyone's contributions are put togeth- er in individual bags to help the girls while they study for exams. We all have a great time putting the bags together for their special delivery!
Charlotte
One of the most well-attended meetings for the Charlotte Alumnae Chapter was our "College Night" We met at a localrestaurantknown for its coflegiate-themed menu. Members were asked to wear either AOII letters or something representing the university they attended. We also had a con-
signment box from the AOII Emporium for mem- bers to shop. It was a ftin evening for everyone!
Chicago City
In the past we have held 'Taste of Chicago" din- ners where we try various types of restaurants for our monthly dinners and lunches. This year we are expanding a bit and holding dinners at mem- bers' houses for a fondue party, dip party, wrap party, barbeque and more.
Detroit North Suburban
"2001, A Space Oddessy" reminded us of the movie, which parallels our Initiation to Eternity time line. Our speaker, Hellen McMahon, is an AOII and past director of the Air and Space Museum at the Smithsonian Institute. She spoke to a gathering of Beta Gamma, Kappa Rho and Lambda Eta collegians as well as Dearborn and Macomb Alumnae members. Her topic was "Women in Space."
EvansvilleTri-State
We hold a "Mock Baby Shower" for Little Lambs, a store for mothers who need assistance. If these mothers-to-be keep their doctor's appointments, they earn points to purchase donated items.
Ft Lauderdale
In March, we go to a local craft store to paint a ceramic piece. This is the third year for this event, and we have had a successful turnout every time. Each person can pick an item and decorate it as they please.
Greater Kansas City
At our "Mock Baby/Wedding Shower," each member brings a wrapped gift, and we take turns opening them. Then we donate the items to a local women's shelter.
Greater Lafayette
One of our members adopted a family for Christmas. During our December meeting, we brought along gifts for the children in the family instead of doing a gift exchange for ourselves.
Greater Los Angeles
We are "Traveling Around the World" this year. We started with a "Bon Voyage" party in
For this issue, w e asked o u r chapters t o share some oftheir favorite themed programming events. Some chapters submitted single event favorites, while some described how their entire year all ties into a single theme. These successful events can easily be adapted to work for almost any alumnae chapter
Bloomington-Normal
This year Bloomington-Normal Alumnae tried several new events. In October, we dressed up for Halloween and handed out stress balls to children at a local hospital. In the spring, the chapter held a "Fun and Fantasy" night for members and friends. This night included palm readers, psy- chics, etc. for all to enjoy.
Bowling Green
This idea was borrowed from another alumnae chapter, but it was our favorite program last year. It was called "My Best Friend's Wedding." We met at a church reception halL and everyone dressed in either their wedding veil, mother's dress or bridesmaid dress. We all brought our wedding albums or pictures of weddings we had been in. We even enjoyed a layer of wedding cake from a member's recent wedding, along with punch and nuts.

Greater Pinellas
Greater Pinellas Alumnae Chapter has a "Spirits of Christmas Brunch," w hich has become a tradition for the first Sunday in December. One of our members hosts this
event at her home. Everyone helps in some
way, either cooking, serving, setting up or cleaning. The men help with the cooking
and have a good time just visiting, while the women decorate and greet new arrivals. Rose napkin rings, made from red and green felt mate- rial, are used and given as souvenirs, if desired. Lots of hugs and many laughs are shared. This really is an event we all look forward to each year.
Hammond Area
We enjoy our "Christmas Tree Trimming Party" with the collegiate chapter. The Sunday that the collegians return from Thanksgiving, we meet in the chapter suite to put up a tree. We have a white tree with red garland, and everyone brings an AOII-related ornament We also put candy canes on the tree for the collegians to snack on. The alumnae bring hot apple cider, hot chocolate, food and hold a gift exchange.
Jonesboro
This year, we held several themed events. In October, we hosted "Bunko" after the monthly meeting. Everyone enjoyed playing the dice game while getting to know each other. In March, we hosted a "Murder Mystery" night. This always proves to be a popular event
Kentuckiana
The Kentuckiana Alumnae Chapter sponsored its 2ndAnnualAOIIRoseRunattheworldfamous Churchill Downs. We invited members to bring their families and friends and join us for an after- noon of fun and horse racing! In between races, we held special prize drawings for everyone hold- ing losing tickets, and then we gathered to catch up on the latest news. Chapter members were invited to stand in the winner circle for a photo with the winning jockey, owner and trainer. This event is one of our most popular and gives us the opportunity to make use of a fabulous historic landmark near Kentuckiana.

Fall Work Session is a new event for the Knoxville Alumnae Chapter. Although we have always worked together to get projects completed, this year we planned ahead, mettogetherin the mid- dle of August, and prepared mailings, gift items, assisted with collegiate recruitment preparations, and completed many projects that now are ready to go when the time of the event arrives. There were no time pressures, and we all enjoyed being together to plan for the corning year.
Lake County of Illinois
We have especially enjoyed our "Scrapbook and Stamping Party," as well as our "Bunco" event These events appeal to all ages and have been very successful for us.

New Orleans
This year, the New Orleans Alumnae Chapter is focusing more on fun sisterhood activities and increasing our membership, and less on business meetings. We have added several new events to the calendar this year such as bowling, an ice hockey game and more!

Mexican sombreros that we wore proudly with our AOII shirts!
Ottawa
This year's best themed programming event for the Ottawa Alumnae Chapter was the "Welcome to Alumnae Status Ritual Meeting" in March 2000. Our hostess, Liz Portolese, turned her home into a virtual rose gallery. Graduating members of Gamma Chi Chapter were greeted with a poster with their pictures on the front door, sprays and bouquets of roses throughout the house, and even their pictures on the mantel and mirror in the living room were surrounded by roses. A very large cake, decorated with sugar roses, highlighted the refreshment table.

PaloAlto
We had a very interesting event last year: 'AOII Antiques Roadshow." We allowed each member to bring two small items to be appraised by an antiques dealer we invited. We will hold it again next year, as everyone thought it was a great idea. We charged each attendee $10 for the appraisal andmadealittlemoneyforthechapteraswellas had an interesting meeting.
alumnae news Philadelphia
Each year in early January, the Philadelphia Alumnae Chapter hosts a "Mother/Daughter Dessert." We invite local collegians home for the holidays to bring their mothers for dessert at a member's home. Many of us bring our own mothers and/or daughters, too. Since we don't have a local collegiate chapter in Philadelphia, this is a great opportunity for us to interact with collegians, as well as to show them that AOII doesn't end with graduation.
Piedmont, NC
"Just Desserts Night" is a chance for our chapter members to gather for some decadent desserts and enjoy each other's company. It is also the one event we have to which chapter member's do not contribute by bringing or paying for items, as it is on the chapter!
Sacramento Valley
Our "AOII Cookies for Collegians" event is popu- lar and fun. We gather to assemble homemade cookie gifts to a collegiate chapter a few hours away and also share the cookies and recipes among ourselves. It is a very good sisterhood and alumnae recruitment activity. We pack the cook- ies in popcorn for sale and inexpensive shipping!
San Diego
There were quite a few places we never made it to in 2000 during our "Oh the Places Youll Go with AOII" themed meetings, so in 2001 we con- tinued our travels with an "Around the World with AOII" theme. For example, our destination in November was France, and our annual Masterpiece Auction to raise funds for the AOII Foundation had a distinctly French flair. Sisters, friends and family enjoyed French refreshments while bidding on beautiful handmade crafts, culi- nary wonders and masterpieces worthy of the Louvre at the lively auction.
San Fernando Valley
We enjoyed our event "Women Empowering Women." The featured speaker discussed how women can start a small portfolio to build up their investments.

Sarasota Area
We have held a theme partv for spouses and sig- nificant others to attend with us. The theme was "AOII Dinner Around the World." Everyone brought a covered dish inspired by a favorite country. As guests arrived at the gate to our host- ess' community, they were greeted and received their "V.I.P (Very Important Passenger) Pass" to board the "AOII Dinner Around the World Cruise." When they arrived at the condo, our social chair greeted everyone with a Hawaiian lei, and an official nametag complete with flags from various countries. Dinner included delicious items like Greek salad, spaghetti, Italian bread, and finished with desserts such as German choco- late cake and apple pie.
Suburban Maryland
Every year we have a holiday party held at a member's house. Spouses or significant others are welcome, and we all share a meal together. A fun gift swap game is played where you can steal a gift away from each other.
Tampa Bay Alumnae
The Tampa Bay Alumnae Chapter holds an annual tea party event in February in honor of the Gamma Theta Chapter at the U of South Florida. Both alumnae and collegians join together for Ritual, followed by a small reception.
Toledo Area
AOII pride and sisterhood has been carried out in this year's programming, and members are encouraged to show off their spirit at each meet- ing. For example, to kick off our panda collection
for Camp Busy Bee in September, each member wore black & white, our panda colors. We show our Halloween spirit by wearing a great hal- loween hat..big, smaU, goofy or scary! At that meeting we put together Halloween baskets for Ronald McDonald House. It's cruise-wear night when we hop aboard the SS AOII for our annual auction! And in December, we donned our holi- day attire as we collected coats for the Salvation Army Coat Drive.
Topeka-Lawrence
Our Salad Supper evening is one of the better attended events, with each attendee bringing a favorite salad with recipe. With so many of us on various diets, this brings in wonderful new recipes.
Toronto Area
In the spring of 2000, we held a Reunion in Toronto of all AOIIs within convenient traveling distance. We invited almost 1,000 women to this event, rejuvenating a feeling of fraternity and love among our sisters. We provided in each invitation a list of all AOIIs in their vicinity and train and hotel discounts. Later that night, groups of women went off with their chapter sisters to bond and reminisce. We will do it again in 2005!
Winston-Salem
Our best themed programming event was "\OII Round-Up" in the Fall It was a Western-themed barbeque and poduck served with our fall busi- ness/planning meeting. Lots of people like to see each other after taking time off in the spring. We also have a successful "Chapter Birthday Party" where we celebrate the chapter and everyone's birthday with a gift exchange. Our annual I10A party is a Hawaiian style luau dubbed the "AOIIneapple Party."

Foundation Update
Arthritis Mini-Grant Program a Success!
Several alumnae and collegiate chapters took advantage of a new Foundation donor option only for chapters, the Arthritis Mini-Grant Program. Alumnaechaptershadaskedforawaytosupportalocal arthritis organization while still receiving recognition for Foundation support, and the mini-grant program was the answer! Here is how it works:
AOII Chapter sends a donation to the Foundation indicating that the gift is for the benefit of a specified local arthritis chapter or pro- gram. AOII Chapter receives Foundation recognition and credit to the chapter giving record in the usual way. The minimum donation for a mini-grant is $100.
Mini-Grants require only a short one page application process and Foundation approval is automatic based on previous receipt of the chapter gift during the current fiscal year (July 1 - June 30) and the proposed use of funds for an educational or charitable purpose, such as a local children's arthritis camp. Contact the Foundation for this application.
Each grant is assessed a $15 administrative fee to cover Foundation costs. For example, an AOII chapter gift of $500 means $485 would be available to a local arthritis chapter. Or the chapter can send an additional $15.
The total given through the Mini-Grant Program this year is $7,332! Participating chapters for 2000-2001 are Little Rock Alumnae, Chicago West Suburban Alumnae, Toledo Alumnae, Gamma Delta, Orlando Alumnae, San Jose Alumnae, Seattle Alumnae, and Sigma, which donated the entire proceeds of their First Annual Penny War to the Northern California Arthritis Chapter with a mini-grant request Thankstoeachchapterforyouradditionalpliilanthropy support this year!

Planned Giving - Is It In Your Plans?
The Second Century Society (SCS) is a group of AOIIs who believe in a special type of gift that keeps on giving. Members of this donor group have made a commitment to a future gift to support the AOII Foundation.
A planned gift can be as simple as mcluding the AOII Foundation in your will or through adding a will codiciL There are many other choices for a future gift rornrmtment such as a life insurance policy that names AOII Foundation as the beneficiary, or a charitable trust Depending on your estate and tax planning needs, there is a planned gift format suitable for you.
Planned giving is endowing dreams and ensuring the future finan- cial stability of AOII programs! Unless otherwise restricted by
your gift plan, all SCS gifts and will bequests go into the perma- nent Foundation endowment, which provides annual income to support programs, scholarships and AOII educational grants. So what is your dream for AOII? For inf ormation on including AOII Foundation in your will and joining the SCS, contact the Foundation office.

If you are an AOII alumna who does not live within a 50-mile radius of an active AOII alumnae chapter, or if you are unable to participate in
your local alumnae chapter's
activities, then you have what it
takes to become an AOII Rose
Member! Membership in an
alumnae chapter is such a
rewarding experience, offering
opportunities for friendship, ser-
vice, personal development and
networking. With the Rose
Member program we hope to
offer some of these same benefits to members who are not part of an alumnae chapter, but who wish to honor and to benefit from the lifetime commitment they made to AOII.
To become a Rose Member, you simply need to complete a membership form and submit an annual fee of $15. Once your form has been received, you will be sent two
issues of our Rose Member newsletter during the year, a printout of AOII alumnae residing in your zip code area, a small gift from AOII International and occasional correspondence from alumnae network personnel. You may also sign up for our Rose Member Listserv on the AOII website so that you will be able to easily communicate online with other
AOII Rose Members.
The new Rose Member program has been developed to reach out to as many of our alumnae as possible and bring them back into the fold of the Fraternity.
We look forward to welcoming many new Rose Members - sisters, together, forever. Please join us!
To request a Rose Member form, please email [email protected], or telephone Headquarters, (615) 370-0920, ext 2645.

of our chapters describe some of the fun
times they have shared together
I_
Alpha Chi
Western Kentucky U
Our favorite sisterhood activities are held at Gatbland when everyone gathers to eat pizza and visit It is a good chance to catch up with everyone when our schedules get hectic. We also look for- ward to our chapter retreats. This past fall, we went to the home of one of our advisors for a cookout and pumpkin carving. For fall break, we planned a trip to go white water rafting and spend the night in a cabin. The weather was a bit chilly, but overall the trip was a blast!
Alpha Delta
U ofAlabama
We have "Big Sis/Little Sis" parties when every- one exchanges gifls for Halloween, Christmas and Valentine's Day. These small gifts brighten our days, and the socials allow us to spend quality time with each other. We also do something we call "Sister of the Week" where we recognize a sister for a small act of kindness that she has done for another. These are announced in chapter meet- ings, and a small prize is given.
Alpha Lambda
Georgia Southern U
AH Alpha Lambda sisters enjoyed traveling to the Mann Center in Georgia for a weekend of laugh- ter, food and sisterhood. While on the retreat we played games to help the new members learn everyone's name. The whole chapter spent the night in rustic outdoor cabins and spent hours sharing AOII memories.
Alpha Phi
Montana State U
Our favorite sisterhood activity was our "Jump, Jive & Jingle Christmas Party" complete with swing dancing instruction.
Alpha Psi
Bowling Green State U
Our Student Rec Center hosts an event called "The Big Playground." It features a velcro wall, sumo wresders, boxing and jousting for college students. Our entire chapter went to play and had a blast Later that day, we danced the night away and were voted best dancers by the DJs. We had many laughs during our plavground time!
AlphaTheta
Coe College
This year we held a new sisterhood activity called "Milk Shakes 'n Make Overs." This was afun evening of hanging out with sisters while giving beauty tips and munching on snacks. The event allowed us to get to know each other better, and a few new hair styles even came out of the evening. Overall it was a fun way to relax and spend time with each other.
Beta Gamma
Michigan State U
We held a scavenger hunt for the whole chapter
which involved teams taking Polaroid pictures of items on our Michigan State University campus.
Beta Tau Chapter (U ofToronto)
BetaTau
U ofToronto
This year the Beta Tau Chapter embraced sister hood. One of this year's most exciting sisterhood events was a pumpldn-carving contest We paired up big and M e sisters to see who could come up with the most original jack-o-lantern. From hilari- ous to haunting, this event was definitely a suc- cess. Through this event, AOIIs were able to engage in some friendly competition, while bond- ing with our new members. Alumnae came out to support and offer their judgment on the best carving, although no winner was chosen because they all were so great All of ourfestivepumpkins were displayed on the chapter's front porch on
Halloween for everyone in the neighborhood and Greek community to enjoy.
Chi Delta
U of Colorado
Our chapter enjoys painting pottery together. We have a place locally that comes to our house so we can paint here. Then they fire them and return them to us later. We also have a great evening of ice skating and hot cocoa.
Chi Epsilon
The Ohio State U
One of our best sisterhood activities is our new member retreat It is a sleepover where all the members of the chapter can become better acquainted with each odier. It is also a good bonding time and helps renew the spirit of AOII.

To Dragma/SUMMER 2001
Chi Lambda
U of Evansville
Our best sisterhood activity would be our "Rose Baskets" game. This is an event when members sit in a circle and each reflects about what AOII means to her. Members often tell personal stories that they might only share with their sisters. It is a serious but happy night filled with tears of sad- ness and laughter. The best part of the Rose Basket is the bonding - and re-prioritizing - that occurs afterward.
ChiTheta
Northeastern State U
At one of our favorite sisterhood functions, we were instructed to "take as much toilet paper as we thought we would need." After all the girls had taken their share off the roll, our CR (hair- man told us that for each square of toilet paper we took, we had to tell something significant al>out ourselves. It was so much fun. we laughed and joked and learned many interesting facts alxjut each other.
Defca
Tufts U
This winter we took a sisterhood ski trip to a local mountain. We choose an area that had a mountain lodge with a beautiful fireplace where those who didn't ski could gather. We later all joined together for hot cocoa around the lire.
Delta Beta
U of Louisiana at Lafayette
Our chapter holds an annual lx>nfire at one of our sister's houses. We have T-shirts made and ride out to the country together where we spend the evening roasting hot dogs and marshmal- lows. This night is usually "Big Sis/lil Sis" night, too, so it is particularly special to us.
Delta Delta
Auburn U
One of our favorite events is our progressive dinner. Sisters who do not live in chapter hous- ing provide their homes for the
others to come and eat part of a
meal together.
Passing the candle Is the dme when we put aside outside pressures and focus only on our sister- hood. This is a very special time for us, and we always leave with a renewed love for AOII and all that we stand for as sisters.
Delta Omega
Murray State U
Our "Sistersays" game is one of our favorite ways to bond. You can pour your heart out about what- ever you want, listen to your sisters pour their hearts out, maybe even cry. Sistersays sentiments are everything sisterhood is about - budding friendships that will last a lifetime.
Delta Pi

We do a lip sync each year in a competition with other sororities. Our sisters have such a good time bonding as we make up dance steps and coordi- nate them with the music. We have a great tradi- tion of winning any lip sync we ever enter!
Epsilon Alpha
Pennsylvania State U
The best sisterhood activity we have is going to a park to play games and bond. This usually takes place right after recruitment when we have our new members. It is a great time of laughing and sharing secrets.
Epsilon Chi
Elon College
Our chapter has sisterhood events every Friday from 3-5pm, and once a month we have a chap- ter meeting designated for sisterhood. One of our best sisterhood activities is the Christmas exchange. Every sister brings a fun gift that costs no more than $10. In the beginning of the meet- ing we play fun getting-to-know-you type games. Then all of the sisters sit in a circle and do a gift exchange. After the gifts are exchanged we have refreshments and everyone socializes.
Epsilon Omega
Eastern Kentucky U
As a chapter, we do not have one particular sister- hood that we claim is our best We try to spend as much time together as possible aside from cam- pus activities. We go out to eat on a regular basis, w hich is always a lot of fun. We usually go to haunted houses together around Halloween. Also, we try to do as much as possible with our sister sororities. Last semester, we went roller skating with the Delta Zetas. We are constantly planning sisterhood activities because that is one of the mostimportantaspectsofourchapter.Itisalways fun to just hang out and have a big slumber
party on the floor.

At our sisterhood retreat, one of our activities was "Who's Feet Are These?" The sister in charge of the retreat took polaroid photos ahead of time of a few members feet and put them on a piece of poster board. The board hung up throughout the weekend and

Delta P i incorporates sisterhood
every meeting as well as holding a sisterhood meeting once a month. Every week we hand out our Pi bear to a sister that has had a bad week. We also have a poem book in which a member can write a poem and then give it to another sister. That person is then responsible for writing a poem in the book and giving it to someone else. Another activity we enjoy is reading Roses and Thorns. These are notes we write that are read at the end of chapter meetings. They usually are encouraging to another sister or something they want to share with everyone.

everyone had to guess who's feet they were. It was a lot of fun because people would be looking at feet at the oddest times, when we were watch- ing a movie or swimming. We also played Sister Trivial Pursuit Each sister wrote down 10 inter- esting things about herself and they were then made into questions. We divided up into teams, and each team had to guess who the clue was about It was a lot of fun and very interesting.
Gamma Alpha

We hold a sisterhood dinner once a month that we call "Cafe AOII." It is a night to go out for coffee and spend time getting to know your sis- ters better.
Gamma Delta
U of South Alabama
We hold a swing dance each vear as a sisterhood event This is a time for all of us to get together and have fun. One of our sisters teaches us step- by-step dance moves, we each bring a partner and learn a couple dances as well as group dances. This is such a wonderful event that every- one enjoys. Swing dancing is extremely easy to learn and is a lot offun.
Gamma Sigma
Georgia State U
We went to Zoo Atlanta together to see the Pandas the day after we initiated 18 new mem- bers. It was a wonderful bonding experience. We had two days of sisterhood, initiation, a member retreat and a day at the zoo.
GammaTheta
U of South Florida
Knowing that sisterhood is essential for a strong chapter, we always take time for sisterhood activi- ties. Our best activity is going to the gymnastics center where one of our sisters works. The owner lets us use it either after classes or for overnight retreats. We bounce on the trampoline, try to walk on the balance beam, and hang from the bars. The sisters also play various team-building activi- ties that the Chapter Relations Committee designs. Before we pass out from exhaustion, we sit around in a circle and each say why we love AOII. It is a perfect ending to a fun time.

Our best sisterhood activity is our gingerbread house-building event. Every year during the holidays, we all get together at the AOII house to bake gingerbread houses for the other five sororities on campus, the Boys and Girls' Club of London, and area retirement homes. We bake and custom-decorate them according to who we are giving them to. All of the sisters break up into groups of about 8-10 people, and we have a contest to see which group comes up with the most visually and architecturally stimulating house. There are prizes for the winners, and it is always a good time.
Kappa Chi
Northwestern State U
Some of our best sisterhood events take place during recruitment This week is fun, but it is also very tiring. Our sisterhood activities keep us focused. This past year, before we went to greet our new members, we made bracelets with col- ored beads that were meaningful to each of us.
Kappa Gamma
Florida Southern College
Our best sisterhood activity so far this year was one that was not planned. Almost all our mem- bers live in our house. One evening, when none of us could stand the thought of another night of cafeteria food, we spontaneously decided to cook dinner together. We not only had a good time, but also had a good meal and learned who our chefs are.
Kappa Kappa

Throughout the year we participate in many sis- terhood activities. One of the best activities for sis- terhood occurs during practice for 'Air Jam," a competition held every year during Homecoming. During the long practices, we real- ly get to know our sisters better.
a cabin outside of Montreal that belonged to one of our sisters. We spent the weekend away from the hectic worries of student life and got to know our sisters better than ever before. Our CR chair- man asked each of us to bring something mean- ingful to put in a time capsule. Each girl shared with the chapter what she had brought and why. Tears were shed and laughter was induced; and we all left the house with even more love and respect for our sisters than we thought possible. What a difference a weekend away can make!
Kappa Rho
Western Michigan U
Overall our most successful sisterhood activity is attending University sporting eventstogether.We went to a hockey game together for the first time last winter, and we all had a great time The events are usually free and very simple to coordinate. We are looking forward to another wonderful season on campus together.
KappaTau
Southeastern Louisiana U
Once a month, during chapter meeting time, we all get together at someone's house for a sister- hood meeting. This is more of a relaxed time, but we still conduct the chapter's business. A group of people usually bring food, such as hamburgers, hot dogs, cakes and cookies. We have numerous fun games and also have a time to discuss our thorns and roses. It is memorable because we do activities to remind us of our very strong and special sisterhood.
Lambda Eta
GrandValley State U
This year we have begun a "partners in crime" program. The idea was to pair up sisters who do notseeeachotheroftenandchallengethemtogo to meetings, work out study, or go out together. The pair that did the most activities together received a prize. This programs worked to make our sisterhood even stronger.

A bonfire with smores made this one of our favorite events of the year!

We all have a wonderful time at our sisterhood retreat in late October. We also all drive to Children's Harbor on Lake Martin and spend some time before initiation together. While there, we play games to get to know each other even more and share our special memories of AOII with our new members.

Our chapter's newest sisterhood activity is a "Big Sis/Lil'SisRetreat" Itwasabondingtimefor all of the women who attended. The agenda for the overnight retreat was relaxing and casual rather than scheduled. We played capture the flag, and enjoyed pizza, music, and sand volleyball We also played a game called Diversity Circle, which consists of asking questions and having the mem- bers cross over into the middle of the circle for a yes answer to a question. Of course, no one had to answer if they felt uncomfortable or self-con- scious. We also played other games and learned tons of humorous facts about the new and older members of our chapter.

Last spring we had a sisterhood retreat bonfire at a farm not too far away from Lexington. The night was full of story sharing, roasting marshmal- lows, eating and all-around fun times for the sis- ters of Tau Omega. The best part of the night was sitting around the fire singing AOII songs!
Theta Beta
Towson U
Although just getting together with sisters and watching a movie seems rather simple and quite ordinary, it really is one of the sisterhood events we enjoy the most "Movie Night" was inexpen- sive, easy to plan, and let us just relax and put all of our worries aside for one night
Theta Omega
Northern Arizona U
Theta Omega has had so many sisterhood activi- ties, it is hard to pinpoint just one that was the best We have had events anywhere from late- night pizza parties to fun movie nights. Our chapter also helped decorate a nearby nursing
Theta Pi
Wagner College
Dinner in the lounge is always a fun sisterhood activity because we love to get together over food. Our Chapter Relations Chairman ordered both Chinese and pizza for dinner one night. The entire chapter was invited to come down and eat It gave us all an opportunity to get together away from the campus community.
Theta Psi
U ofToledo
Theta fti recently held a sisterhood activity at a local roller skating rink. It was fun for everyone whether you could skate or not It was a great way to hang out and show our new members how much fun we have together.
Zeta
U of Nebraska Lincoln
Zeta frequendy has slumber parties for all mem- bers to attend. This usually consists of all the girls watching movies and staying up late.
Zeta Kappa
SouthwestTexas State U
Our best sisterhood activity this past year was one where we decided to combine our sisterhood event with an open house. It was around Halloween, and we decided to decorate pump- kins. The chapter members seemed to love the activity as well as the girls that came to the house for the recruitment event It was a great activity for conversations as well as a little competition among the decorators.
Zeta Pi
U ofAlabama Birmingham
Once a month. Zeta Pi replaces regular chapter meetings with a sisterhood event We decided that our favorite thing to do, hands down, is caravan- ing to Galleria Fun Country where we race go
carts, play miniature golf and compete at various other games.
