UPDATED! Rho Beta plans for Relays weekend

The reunion will be over lunch on the Saturday of Relays weekend (April 25) for Rho Betas and their families. It'll be at the Raccoon River Crewing Co. in downtown Des Moines at 10th and Mulberry. We have a (limited seating!) private room starting at 11:30.

I know it's not great for those of you going to the races. But a majority of people who have RSVPed are involved in the cluster reunion on Friday night; and the all-Greek reunion in Saturday night; and travelers will need to start hitting the road Sunday. So Saturday lunch it is.

But I need to know who is attending. If you plan to be there, please e-mail me (suselisto (at) gmail.com) as soon as possible.

New Years Resolution - Get Serious About Plans!!

OK, time to get serious. Relays is less than four months away. (If you haven't already checked in, please do so ... we'd love to know who else is out there!)

Here's what Drake has posted on the event: http://www.drake.edu/alumni/allgreekreunion/index.php

The last I'd heard, it was going to be a tent party, Saturday, April 25th, from 4-8 p.m. There was talk of a tent on 34th Street and a throwback to old school Relays Tent Parties. (Except I don't need to know someone on the Relays committee or borrow the ID of an older Chi O sister.)

I've (hopefully) signed the guestbook and directed people to the blog. I was hoping to have more of an idea what Drake is going to do to promote individual house events ... But I am moving forward assuming it's just us gals, and the people we're still in touch with, and the people they're still in touch with, and so on. Grassroots, baby!!

I'm reopening a poll asking people what they would prefer to do. With the Drake event over the dinner hour Saturday, that pretty much leaves:
  • Friday night (bad for travelers)
  • Saturday breakfast (no, it probably can't be at West End)
  • Saturday lunch (bad for race-goers)
  • Sunday brunch (bad for travelers)
And here I thought this was going to be difficult.

I promise ... more updates. More photos. Join us on Facebook. Tell a friend. Make plans for April in Des Moines. It's lovely!
