My favorite part about RUSH Week was the cookout at the Grove. I loved hanging out with all the MIT's and members and meeting new people. The food was amazing thanks to our awesome cooks and the service project was fun. I thought this RUSH activity was a great way to just mingle and get to know the people that I will be spending a lot of my time with over the next year and hopefully many years to come.

”-Jillian Lisiakowski Member-In-Training

I had a sort of late start into rush retreat . . . I had lost my sheet and it wasnʼt until Tuesday that I was able to stop Lexi on the side of the street to see where the next event I could attend was. I made it to t h e c o o k o u t a n d t o p a i n t canvases which both had me pretty convinced that I wanted to become a Gamma Sig. However, the retreat was by far the most fun. I got to know several of the members and a good bit of the MITʼs. We bonded over a campfire and an early morning, and even how we like our coffee (wink wink, Lauren). I couldnʼt have asked for a better start onto my journey with Gamma Sigma Sigma.

This semester, our Zeta Omicron chapter has make

an extra effort to keep in contact with our District Director, Jennifer Baker.

Every month, we send her an update about the

chapter events! She is very excited about everything

we are up to and we cannot wait for her visit!

Katie Nix

We currently have 38 MITs and soon to be members! The MIT period this semester has been eight weeks long. The MIT

fundraiser is selling hot chocolate and doughnuts on campus. They held a wonderful Jungle Diva social to get to know all of the members! And their service project will be collecting socks

for the GNETS' students for the winter. Membership cannot wait for Sisterhood Retreat next semester!

Unity Weekend at Tybee Island was a blast! Each lady that

came was able to help for 3.5 hours at the Salvation Army moving beds, furniture, and

organizing the warehouse! We are looking forward to a visit

from our District Director, Jennifer Baker, who is going to come visit our Initiation and Diabetes Walk! On November 12, not only are we welcoming in 38 MITs, but 6

Honorary Members as well! 

Lexi Kraft

We are extremely stoked about our new IMPACT areas and all that our chapter has done to embrace them! Get pumped

for our Diabetes Walk on November 12th! We are

excited about presenting our chapter to the Milledgeville community! A peek ahead-

Spring event is March 11- GC Baseball Miracle League Day to benefit the Miracle League

of Macon!

This semester, we had semi-formal on Front Campus for the first time

and it was very successful! The theme was Modern Fairytale!  

Next semester, we are looking to having our Murder Mystery social

and we are thinking about having Formal in Atlanta! 

Social Liaison Mandy Slack

Public Relations Liaison Michele McGuire

We are so excited for our largest event of the semester, our Diabetes Walk and were

recently featured on the Macon News! Gamma Sigma Sigma is becoming well known

not only on campus, but around the Milledgeville-

Baldwin County area! It is a great feeling to know that

such an amazing organization is being recognized for all that

it does. 

Alumni Liaison Danielle Paluga

We are excited about alumni lunch this year. It will be after

the GIVE Center's Potato Drop event, where students from

different organizations come to help feed the hungry and

bag potatoes for the community! 

Our biggest fundraiser this semester will be Balloon Popping!

We have collected donations (coupons, goodies) from

businesses around the community and will be "balloon popping" at the Diabetes Walk. We have some great fundraisers for the Spring Semester that are

already in gear!

This is our first semester with the financial

secretary as a member of the executive board. While there were some growing pains at the

beginning, now it is much easier for the treasurer to

focus on fundraisers. I have developed the

payment boxes which make collecting money

much easier. 

Financial SecretaryAlex Dixon

My committee and I have made contact with over 28 chapters nationally, as well

as our District Director. Additionally, I have been

very busy with organizing all room reservations and files.
