Elmhurst College Alumnae Reception and Presentation

Several members of our alumnae chapter attended a reception on May 7, 2013 to learn more about the presentation that AOII is making today, May 8, 2013 at Elmhurst College in Elmhurst, IL.  Special thanks go to our chapter member, Sharon, for hosting this event!  We had a lovely time meeting local alumnae and learning about the presentation process.

The cake was made by an AOII's mom, a local baker!

Ritual and Dessert Night

We always enjoy our April meeting when we install our new officers.  This year was no exception, even with the heavy rain and flooding going on outside!  In addition to officially welcoming our new alumnae chapter leaders, we shared a memorial for Margaret and celebrated Jeanne C.'s 50th anniversary!  It was a very special evening on several levels.  We're getting excited about the Arthritis Walks coming up and had a great time chatting about all of the fun things we're looking forward to at convention in June!
