Convention 2014 - Seattle, WA

Who is getting excited about Convention?!

Region 8 team is getting to preview the hotel this weekend and we will get to take a site tour with the Convention Arrangements Committee on Sunday.

I'm hoping to see several of the GC Gamma Phi Betas there in July!

If I get re-elected as AC President, I will be going as delegate. It will be my first convention!

Any news on when the registration fees will be announced?

Me! I'm so excited. This will be #4 for me. It's going to be so much fun to experience Convention as a CA for the first time! Which reminds me - I was going to learn the alto parts for the songs so I could sing as an alto in the choir this year instead of soprano. Better get working on that!!

I have wanted to go to the last 3, but life got in the way. Maybe this year.

Fort Worth Alumnae delegate/alternate has not been decided yet, but we've definitely budgeted for it. You should put your name in for consideration if you can go since we are funding part of their way!

Our chapter always has a raffle to raise money for the delegate fund.

I have a very awkward work schedule and likely won't be able to attend. Though, I always hold out hope.....

Yeah, that's what I want to know too.

Conventions are ridiculously expensive. I believe that the 2012 convention registration fees were $800, not including airfare or hotel. The hotel convention rate runs $149/night (for one person), $159 (double occupancy) and $169 (triple occupancy) - with 14.5% tax. It would be $240 round trip for me to fly on Southwest airlines. So, in all, it would cost me $1,722 to attend - not including costs for any meals that aren't included, foundation donations, or any shopping at the convention boutique.

If my schedule and budget will allow it, I may try to fly in Friday night or Saturday morning to attend ritual and the pink carnation dinner and then leave Sunday morning. That would "only" cost me $750.

Sorry ladies, the registration fee schedule has been published and I regret that I can't go. Not only am I on-duty with slim chance of getting a shift trade; but, I can't justify the high expense to attend. Please report back afterward to share with us all of the fun times!

I'm trying to decide which of the breakout sessions to attend (assuming VLs don't have a directive). Hope to meet some of my fellow GC GPBs. :-)
