Every year, as part of recruitment, Tau Beta Sigma holds Sister Week. During the week, there are events each night for the sisters and potential members to attend. This allows potential members to learn more about the sisters and how we serve the bands and the community. It also gives current sisters the ability to spend time together outside of marching band or wind orchestra. There is a mix of service and social events throughout the week. The week ends with Rose Tea, which is our formal event. Potential members have to attend two events to get an invitation to Rose Tea. It is the last recruitment event for the semester and the last chance to get to know sisters and potential members.
It is hard to pick a favorite event, because all of them are so much fun. This year, I would say my favorite event was performing at Elmcroft Senior Living Center. Friday evening, we carpooled to Elmcroft to perform a short concert for the residents. It was a lot of fun and everyone had a great time. Afterwards, we went to Kewpee to eat and socialize. The car ride to and from Elmcroft allowed me to get to know Andrea and Kaitlyn, two potential members. We had so much fun. On the way back to campus, we started to create a song. It was a great night.
Even though it is busy, Sister Week is one of my favorite weeks of the semester. I get to spend time with sisters and potential members I normally don't get to see on a regular basis. Plus, our events are very fun. They are a great way to relax after a day of classes. The week allows me to remember why I wanted to join Tau Beta Sigma.
