Convention What to Bring List and Roll Call

Hello all,

Convention is less than two weeks away, and I’m sure many of you are wondering what exactly to bring for the various events at convention. In addition to the traditional things that one will need for many days of travel, the following is a list of what you should bring for the various events at Convention:

Comfortable clothing (no jeans! Ex: sweat pants and t-shirt) for Fitness Classes;
Digital camera, USB cord, and Louisville map for Scavenger Hunt;
Favorite Games to play for Game/Movie night;
Business casual apparel and $8/hr for Lucky Strike Bowling;
Wedding attire for the Wedding and Reception;
Favorite outfit for the opposite sex for Mr. & Mrs. APO;
T-Shirt for the T-Shirt Signing Party;
Comfortable clothing and tennis shoes for Dodge ball;
Baseball attire for the fellowship banquet;
Derby attire (think prom for the girls and suits for the guys);
Derby hat (can make at a workshop for $2) or top hat;
Alumni ONLY- Oldest APO convention t-shirt for a competition at the T-Shirt Signing Party

Additionally, the following are the rules for the Roll Call Contest at Convention. Chapters will be able to sign up during convention registration pick-up to participate.

Chapters will have ONE minute to get on deck
Chapters will have 30 seconds to display their call once they are announced on stage
Chapter order will be determined randomly.
Chapters must register before Roll Call begins
No recorded music
No props (use of props results in a penalty point deduction)
No fowl language or inappropriate content, this will result in an automatic disqualification
The Roll Call does not have to include the whole chapter

Scoring:

5 categories, 10 points each:
Originality
Clarity
Team Presentation
Energy
Identification

Five judges will evaluate each chapter. The total score from those five judges will determine the final score for the Roll Call. Prop penalty is a five point deduction.

As always if you have any additional questions let me know. See you all in less than two weeks at convention!
