Sisterhood Events

Sisterhood events are fun ways to bond with other Thetas in the Omega chapter. We love going to football games, the movies, and San Francisco, for example. Thetas even travel to Los Angeles each fall for the Cal-USC or Cal-UCLA football game.

In the 2009-2010 academic year, Thetas have: 

• gone to see the musical Wicked in San Francisco (a Theta alumna performed as Elphaba! See Alumnae page for more.)
• placed 4th in Fall 2009's Greek Week (out of 65 UC Berkeley-recognized Greek fraternities and sororities!)

• gone roller-skating for Fall Bid Day and ice-skating for Spring Bid Day

• gone camping overnight in Tilden Regional Park
  

• gathered to watch the season premieres of some of our sisters' favorite television shows such as Glee and America's Best Dance Crew
• hosted Theta Dodgeball, our signature philanthropy event to benefit CASA, the Court Appointed Special Advocates (visit our Philanthropy page to learn more)

• taken road trips to UCLA and Stanfurd for the football games where our beloved Golden Bears were victorious!
• choreographed a number for Sigma Chi's Derby Dance-Off
• enjoyed Sunday sisterhood dinners 
• gone for manicures before Ace, the formal ball hosted each spring by the 5 oldest sororities on campus
• hosted Trick-or-Greek for local children on Halloween 

• served in The Berkeley Project  
• gone out for a night on the town to San Francisco in limousines
• enjoyed California weather at the Strawberry Canyon pool
• gone bowling as Big & Little Sisters

• hosted invites themed "Rewind '09" and "Oh, the places you'll go!" (keep reading below for more on invites!)

From invites to date parties to fraternity exchanges, Thetas really know how to have fun! Two to three times a semester, we rent out a club in San Francisco exclusively for Thetas and guests. We also have exchanges with fraternities and other sororities throughout the year. The best parts about invites and exchanges are the themes!

Every fall semester starts off with our annual cowboy-themed invitational, "Showdown." Other past invite themes include Planet Hollywood, the "T Party" (where Thetas & their guests dressed in creative costumes that started with the word "T" including everything from teachers to Twister boards to Tetris), Rewind '09 (where costumes included anything reminiscent of 2009), and "Oh, the places you'll go!"
