HELLO JMU DUKES!!!

It's time to come back to the 'Burg, to get your chapter back to basics!!! This year has been full of exciting chapter activity. There have been many new changes in chapter leadership, event planning, chapter standards and chapter scholarship fund raising. All of these changes can be very exciting and overwhelming, so we're going to come together and bring it "back to the basics" to help you fortify and grow your alumni chapter programming.

This is a great opportunity to network with fellow alumni volunteers whether you're a "seasoned" chapter leader, or are just getting started. I welcome you to bring friends and family as we celebrate the work you have done in the past year, and establish some basic building blocks to make 2005 another great success!!!

Throughout the day we'll treat you to sessions on chapter programming potential, lunch at D-Hall, an opportunity to speak with Dr. Rose, an awards reception and a chance to cheer on your JMU Dukes as they take on long-time rival George Mason! You won't want to miss out, so come'on back to the 'Burg and get back to basics with your chapter!!
