Rho Centennial
When: October 15 - 17, 2010
This year marks the 100th anniversary for the Rho Chapter of Alpha Chi Omega at the University of Washington! This, of course, calls for a big celebration to reunite and commemorate with active members, Rho graduates, and area AXO alumni alike.
We have a fun-filled weekend of activities in October 2010 including class reuinions, a formal celebration, Rho house tours, and a closing brunch. It just so happens it will also be UW's Homecoming weekend which means we'll be doing something fun for the football game.

Calling all Alpha Chi Omega’s near and far – Rho Chapter will be celebrating their 100th year on the University of Washington campus. The weekend events that are planned for this celebration will be a wonderful way for all to get together to reflect on days of long ago, reconnect with the bonds of Alpha Chi Omega and refresh with sisters from yesteryear. Don’t let this once in a lifetime opportunity pass you by.
This year Iota Iota will be offering a discount on dues. If you pay your dues before September 1st the amount will be only $25.00. We are hoping that this discount will assist many of you to reserve your attendance at the Centennial event and pay your dues for the 2010 – 2011 year.
This Fall Newsletter is chalk full of articles sharing with you all that has been happening with Alpha Chi Omega, Rho Chapter and Iota Iota. Take a moment and enjoy the many pages and don’t forget to complete and mail in the coupon so that you too will be in the know of what is happening here in Seattle and with Alpha Chi Omega.
If you are someone who is looking for a venue to share your time and talents please take a moment and reflect back as to the reasons why you joined Alpha Chi and consider volunteering. Alpha Chi is not just the four years you spend at a university but, if you so choose, it can be a lifetime of joy and sisterhood. Please feel free to contact me if any of the available positions interest you, my email address is rhawes4541_aol.com
Looking forward to seeing our Real. Strong. Women. of Alpha Chi Omega at Rho’s Centennial and other upcoming events.
