Sorority Social Events

Have You Ever Wondered What Sororities Do For Fun?
There are many planned events and activities sororities plan throughout the year.

FORMAL

Formal is by far one of the most fun social events that sororities plan. Think back to your senior year of prom. Did you have an amazing time? Well, if you did, you will be able to do it all over again if you join a sorority. Each girl in the sorority gets to ask a date to bring to a planned formal dance. There is food, dancing and fun all night. When I went to mine, I had a great time. I sat at a table with all of my friends and their dates. It is something I will never forget. There are also awards passed out at formal to recognize girls who were outsdanding sorority members. It is something that not all college girls get to do, so having an experience like going to formal is an amazing time.

OTHER DANCES

During the year your sorority may plan other dances as well. My sorority planned a dance called "Crush Dance." This dance was more casual than formal. It is just a good time to have fun with your friends. A lot of girls don't even bring dates; they simply go by themselves just to have a great time with everyone. Sometimes if a girl can't find a date then two of the sorority sisters will go together as friends instead and have just as much fun.

Another dance held is called "Barndance." This is one of the most fun dances of the whole year. The whole sorority brings dates and we get on a bus and go to a farm. (I know, it sounds a little ridiculous doesn't it?) All of the girls and guys are dressed up like cowgirls and cowboys. The music is country at the barn and everyone dances the whole night and has a great time. It is something different and that is why it is so much fun!


SISTERHOODS

Sisterhoods are a big part of being in a sorority. They are planned events for all of the girls to get together and hang out. It can be as simple as one sorority getting together and going out to eat, or two different sororities planning something such as bowling to get to know one another better. Sisterhoods are a really great part of being in a sorority because it allows you to talk to some of the girls that you may not be as close to. That is why sororities are so close; so many events are planned that it is nearly impossible not to get to know everyone. One of the best sisterhoods I went to was when my sorority went out to Alexander's Steakhouse for dinner. It was a really fun time because they were the girls I don't get to talk to as often. A lot of times we will just get together to go out for ice cream, too.

These are only some of the events that sororities do and they differ from sorority to sorority. They are all a great experience and something that every girl loves.
