House Update Summer 2012

Hello AXO Parents Club members,  
A lot of activity has been going on at the Omega Chapter house since our daughters left for the summer.  Linda Tate, the house director, has been working to get the house ready for when the girls return next month. 
As you may recall, at the Mom's weekend parents club meeting we agreed to contribute $7,500 toward replacing the flooring in the downstairs TV room (a.k.a. "The Crib"). The flooring has been replaced and Linda is purchasing some final touches for the room to have it in tip top shape for recruitment.  Linda will be purchasing an area rug as well as decorative pillows and other odds and ends to update the appearance of this room.  
Also, the backrooms on the top floor of the house have now been updated similarly to the second floor rooms that were done last year and all mattresses on every bed in the house are being replaced.  These last two improvements were funded by the Alpha Chi Omega National Housing Corporation.

Below are pictures of the improvements to the house:

Raft Trip Update

Hello AXO Parents!
Just a quick update on the rafting trip that we mentioned in the last post.  Of the parents that responded to our request to vote on this, the vote was unanimous that the Parents Club should partially fund the rafting trip.  The Parents Club has committed $5,000 toward the overall cost of the raft trip. Chapter president Gabby Buonviri is working on the details of the trip so that everything will be ready when our daughters return to school next month.  We do not have the actual date of the trip yet, that is something Gabby is working out with the rafting company but we do know it will be after recrutiment and after school starts.  Just a reminder, it will be a one day rafting trip  for approximately 90 girls on a first come, first-served basis.
If you have any questions about the trip, please email us at axowsuparentsclub@gmail.com
