AOII Boston Area Founder's Day 2013!
Stella, Helen, Elizabeth & Jessie Would Be Proud of Boston AOII's!
Programming included ritual, the presentation of the annual Rose Award which this year was given to Kathleen Donahue for all of her time and dedication toward AOII, hearing a chapter update from the Delta chapter in addition to a AOII Foundation update, and we also raised $200 for the Ruby Fund, which we know will go to great use for a sister in need.
It was so great to show some Alpha Love in honor of our founders! Thanks to everyone who attended!

All positions are open, and if there is not an existing position that suits your interests we can create one! Laurel is moving on to an AOII network specialist position and stepping down as president, so this is the perfect opportunity for an aspiring new leader!
Below are some Q&A to give you better insight into officer responsibilities. Please let us know if you have additional questions that are not covered by the information below!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: What positions are available and what are the responsibilities?
A: President - Serves as the official contact person of the chapter. Responds to chapter emails regarding membership and events. Sends email updates to chapter as needed. Attends 2013 International Convention (June 26-30 in Chicago) as the Chapter Delegate. Participates in Alumnae Network conference calls and remits Standards of Excellence award nomination to HQ.
Vice President - Assists President with duties above and other officer duties where needed, such as collaborating with collegiate chapters, alumnae membership outreach, or educational programmng.
Programming Chair - Surveys the membership on programming requests for the upcoming year. Creates event calendar for the year. Sends Evites for each upcoming event, coordinates with venues, and verifies that there will be an officer present at each event.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: I have a family and am involved in a number of other organizations. Is there a huge time commitment associated with being an officer?
A: We hold an officer kickoff meeting to collaborate on ideas for events and membership for the upcoming year. After that, most of our correspondence is via email (3-4 times a month). Most officers do not have any paperwork or reports to file.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: If I am an officer, do I have to attend every Alumnae Chapter event?
A: No, officers work together to make sure that there is always at least one officer to coordinate at the event.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A: March 3 - Interested members complete interest form

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q. I'm interested in a position, but nothing above stands out to me. What should I do?
A. Let us know! If you have a specific area you would like to pursue, positions can be appointed to capitalize on members' individual strengths and chapter needs: collegiate relations, community service, suburban liaison, these are just a few examples of positions which can be created.
