The newsletter of the Indianapolis Alpha Gamma Delta Alumnae Club Fall 2007

Dear Indianapolis Alpha Gams,

Happy Holidays! It’s hard to believe that the holiday season is here already. Every year seems to go by even more quickly
than the last! Before we know it, it’ll be 2008.

The 2007-2008 year promises to be an exciting one for the Indianapolis Alumnae Club. We have committed ourselves to
making this the most successful year yet for the club. Our foremost goal is getting more sisters involved. We’ve analyzed
past events, talked about what our sisters in the area would enjoy participating in, and have compiled a calendar that should
have something to interest almost everybody.

Did you know that there are more than 1,200 Alpha Gamma Deltas in the Indianapolis area? This is an amazing opportunity
for us to connect. Your Alpha Gam experience doesn’t end at college—together we can make new friends, help the com-
munity, and above all, have fun! If you have an idea of an activity or want to share input on how we can get more sisters
involved, please don’t hesitate to contact us. You can e-mail any individual officer (contact information is below) or the club
e-mail address at indyalphagam@hotmail.com

Check out this newsletter for information on upcoming events and alumnae club news. We hope to see you soon!

Loyally,
The Indianapolis Alumnae Club Officers

 Connect with us online!
The Indianapolis Alumnae Club wants to be your
friend...in person AND online! We’ve created a
MySpace page for the club and are also develop-
ing a Yahoo! Group dedicated to the Indianapolis
Alumnae Club. Utilizing these established ser-
vices will greatly help us in communicating with
each other and staying up to date on club hap-
penings.
The MySpace page is located at www.myspace.
com/indyalphagam. We’ll use this page to net-
work with sisters, post blogs and bulletins about
upcoming events and share photos of members
at club activities. Information and announce-
ments that don’t necessitate a full club-wide
e-mail will also be shared at this page.
This is also a great way for sisters to connect with
each other outside of structured alumnae club
activities. Wondering what other Alpha Gams are
up to over the weekend? Have some great news
to share? Want to invite sisters to an event? Use
the comments section of the page to post any of
these items, or use it just to say hello!
Once the Yahoo! Group is developed, we’ll send
out an invite for members to join. This will be yet
another avenue that we can use to connect and
share information.

Introducing...
Mid-week meet-ups
One new activity that we’re excited to share with
alumnae club members is the “Mid-Week Meet-
Up.” These gatherings, which will be held monthly
on a day (you guessed it!) mid-way through the
week will be a casual, fun ways for Alpha Gams to
kick back, enjoy drinks and appetizers, and get to
know one another.
Convention 2008
Alpha Gamma Delta’s 45th International Convention
will be held June 19 to 22, 2008 at the San Antonio
Marriott Rivercenter in San Antonio, Texas. Don’t
forget to mark your calendars...This is sure to be an
