Michigan-Detroit

Any other Alpha Gamma Deltas on the board? :)

So far, there are a few of us as evidenced in this thread: http://forums.theknot.com/Sites/theknot/Pages/Main.aspx/local-wedding-boards_michigan-detroit_omg-iwant-cake-look-like_. How fun!

If there are others...where did you go to school? :)

    Well you know about me so I'm not new news. You asked when I graduated....I'm afraid I have a few (and a few more) years on you ladies.

    I was an Alpha Gam at Western from 1996-1999.  And then I worked as a Leadership Consultant from 1999-2000.  I've been volunteering throughout Michigan up until a couple of years ago - most recently as the Operations Advisor at Eastern. I just decided a couple of years ago that I needed a little break – I’m sure I’ll come back at some point – but I have some other things going on for now.

    FutureMrsJeffords, there are lots of opportunities to get involved if you’re interested again – there are LOTS of alum clubs in the Detroit area, a couple of Junior Circles and of course collegiate chapters always need advisors! IRD is April 10th if you’re interested!
    What fun and small world!

    How I Love those Alpha Gams so deep deep!

    You're not THAT much older than me, Kristen.  I was at Alma College 1998-2002.  Do you know where IRD is this year?

    Oh, how fun!!  I haven't been back in years so I probably wouldn't know her. :(   But I'm glad you like them...all of the sisters when I was in college were super sweet as well.

    I'm not sure where IRD is.  I'm getting married that day :) and didn't save the invitation.  If I remember correctly though, Alma is co-sponsoring it.  If you're interested I can track down the registration info.

    too funny - I'm not Alpha Gam but I went to their formal recruitment parties and pref ceremony when I went thru rush in 1994 at wayne state.  I ended up pledging and initiating into AEPhi.  :)

    Is anyone else going to IRD?  I would totally go if I have someone to go with. :)

    Also, please forgive my ignorance, but are candlelight ceremonies for pinnings, promise rings, engagments, and weddings sorority-wide or was it just my chapter?  I loved when we had a candlelight ceremony...I'm just a big ol' romantic!
