"gym" sorority???

[gtkingpin09]

I want to found an athletic based/fitness/"gym" sorority. There are gym frats, but no gym sororities that I am aware of. Can anyone tell me if there are? Or give me any information at all as to how I go about starting this business, getting info around, etc?

I'm interested in knowing more about these gym fraternities. Can you tell me the names and where they are located?

Phi Epsilon Kappa is one, but I haven't found a website yet. It's national.

Another one that seems to be (have been) local was Delta Theta Epsilon at UIUC.

There are several "teacher" sororities of Health education is your major. just google sorority for teachers and they will come up. But this was the only health one I saw. Did not see any for athletes.

OOOHHHHHHHHH......when you said "gym" sorority I was thinking about a sorority for girls who work out together...not a professional based group.

Obviously, I've never heard of them...and just goes to show you there's a group for just about everyone under the sun!!

I wasn't aware that there was a "gym" sorority, either. I have heard of sororities that have a high amount of phys ed majors, or one team or another (my own chapter's photo in the 1942 says that they all are members of the Athletic Association).

Interesting!

I thought the same thing. I thought the original poster was looking to form a group of girls that she could go to the gym with.
