Conclave 2013 "Share The Gold"


I haven't written much about my charity gal,
the Alpha Beta Chapter of Omega Nu.
We are a philanthropic sorority and our primary 
function is to raise money for local charities.


Children's Services, Red Ribbon Week for elementary schools
(drug awareness), The Mission, Tec Trek (a science and math camp
for girls), Scholarships to both Chico State and Butte Collages
and many other organizations in our town.


Omega Nu is made up of 12 chapters, all in N. California.
Modesto, Lodi, Chico, Watsonville, Colusa, Sacramento, 
Santa Cruz,Santa Rosa, Woodland, Sonora, Stockton and Oroville.
Each year in November, Conclave is held and hosted by one 
of the chapters.  This was our year.


We have been working on this for two years.
The event is made up of, the Saturday business meeting.
Saturday night dinner-dance and Sunday brunch-
business meeting and Installation of new Grand Officers,
for about 150 attending.


Our theme was, "Share The Gold"
Our county is not only rich in Gold Rush History but in agriculture.
Olive oil, rice, nuts, fruits, and citric were showcased, 
with gold nuggets (candy) for accents.


Our Sisters worked very hard and it showed.
Many hidden talents arose, such as the art work that became 
our logo.  Everything was first rate and beautiful.


Just like my Sisters, it was truly a Golden weekend.
