spring break
Alpha Gams spent spring break traveling the world and discovering new experiences. From Soho to Florida to the Bahamas to Nice, we had fun in the sun. For those who stayed at home, we braved the Nor'easter and had a winter-filled spring break. We're happy to have the chance to relax and make memories with sisters!Â
BIG
LIL march 2018
On Tuesday, March 13th, Big Little Week started! The week consisted of four days of bigs sneaking into littles' rooms to decorate and give them lots of gifts. The bigs were so excited to spoil their littles! The littles were left wondering who their bigs could possibly be with the anticipation growing each day.Â
After a week of bigs secretly decorating littles' rooms and leaving gifts, it was time for reveal! It took place on Sunday, March 18th. Each family wore matching shirts. The room was filled with so much excitement as bigs took off sweatshirts to reveal ! We are so happy to grow our families!
cats win it all! On April 2nd, 2018, the Villanova Wildcats' men's basketball team defeated Michigan in the March Madness Championship. After a season of excitement, we were overjoyed by the chance to celebrate another national championship. Brought together by our love for Villanova basketball, Alpha Gams spent time watching the games together. In addition, we celebrated after the game on campus and at the parade later in the week. Some lucky Alpha Gams took the trip to San Antonio, Texas to watch the Final Four and National Championship in person. Go cats!
it's all greek (week) to me Greek Week occurred this year from April 9th to April 13th. Activities included coin wars, quizzo, can castle, skit, and field day! Our theme for skit this year was Space Jam. It was a great time to compete with other Greek organizations and bring together the Greek community.
initiation
On April 7th, 2018, we welcomed 45Â new members officially into our chapter. Everyone wore white dresses, participated in ritual, and received red and buff roses, and green asparagus plumosa ferns. After the Initiation ceremony, we had a Feast of Roses luncheon to celebrate our newly initiated members and their families. We enjoyed a great meal together, heard from several insightful speakers, and raised $680 to help fight hunger in our community. Congrats!
in review sisterhood On March 16th, sisters took a trip to Skyzone. We had a blast jumping around and hanging out with our friends. We're certainly tired from all that jumping but are happy for the time spent with our sisters!
We had our annual International Reunion Day with the Alpha Gam chapter at St. Joseph's on April 15th. Catching up with them and alumnae is something we look forward to each year. Celebrating our 5th year anniversary made it especially special!
Additionally, we had an Alpha Gam group at Quizzo held on campus on Thursday, March 22nd. We had a great time showing off our smart squirrel skills by answering trivia.
We had some friendly competition while playing board games at our game night on April 18th.
On March 23rd, we learned a lot at a self-defense class. The juniors also had their Purpose Retreat.
In preparation for our Formal the night after, we had a nail painting night on April 25th!
philanthropy At our Waffle Jam event on April 20th, we raised over $1400 for our international philanthropic focus of Fighting Hunger. Alpha Gams joined together at NOVAdance and Relay for Life to fight against cancer.
academics We donned comfy pajamas on Sunday, April 8th at our Achievement Brunch. We're so proud of each others' academic accomplishments!
