I've been to every convention since 2005, when I went as my chapter's delegate. I love it because I meet new sisters and make new friends at each convention, and I look forward to seeing old friends. Case in point - I met AZ-AlphaXi here on GC before convention in 2005, but then I got to meet her in person there.
There are alot of educational programs for the collegians, and alumnae associations/advisors. There's national initiation, state of the fraternity information passed down (which is alot of fun) banquets, sisterhood events etc. My first 2 conventions, I did the full package, but they offer smaller packages that only include certain events... So for example, if you aren't a delegate and aren't REQUIRED to be at all events, and you'd rather sleep in or go shopping/sightseeing during some events, you're more than welcome to.
Convention is FUN. Come. You won't regret it.
