Collegiate Leadership Conference 2013!

         From Friday, February 22nd to Sunday, February 24th, our  Collegiate Chapter President (Shannon McKechnie), Vice President Public Relations (Giovanna Campagna) and New Member Educator (Katey Bunting) made their way to Dallas/Fort Worth, TX for the Collegiate Leadership Conference 2013. The experience allowed for each officer to acquire new tools they could use in their office and interact with those in the same position from schools all around North America.

         On the first day of the Conference, the opening ceremony allowed us to get familiar with Executive Office. In addition to their warm welcome, we got to hear an inspiring Keynote speech inspiring us to think forward and be innovative. It was then followed by a break out into our respective tracks where we began to learn about our positions through the perspective of other chapters.

            Day two was 'School Spirit Day' where we got to represent the University of Toronto! That day was also the St.Jude Taligate lunch where we then had the honour of hearing Ingram and his family's story. His sister, Madison, made a beautiful speech on how Tri Delta's philanthropy efforts had helped her and her brother feel more at home during his treatment at St. Jude. Because of Tri Delta's influence on St. Jude and in her life, she wants to be Tri Delta when she grows up to continue her fundrasing efforts towards children's cancer. Tri Delta's alone have raised over $4.2 million for St. Jude in the past year. This is a big step for our goal of raising $15 million in 5 years.

Our closing ceremony was lead by Delta Delta Delta's fraternity president Phyllis Grissoms  where she left us with encouraging words, inspiring us to do great things with what we have learnt from our workshops and track break outs.
