TBS SED Appointed Positions!

Hey SED,

I am thrilled to announce the newest additions to this year’s TBS SED Council!!!!

Joining us from THE Florida State University chapter of Tau Beta Sigma, Alpha Omega, the new SED Parliamentarian for the 2013-2014 year is Neil Bleiweiss! This year, he will be working to contact chapters about getting the most out of your chapter constitutions! Neil crossed in Spring 2011.

Hailing from the SED 2014 host school, the Georgia Institute of Technology and the Epsilon Theta chapter of Tau Beta Sigma. Our TBS SED Historian 2013-2014 is Bridgette Bell. She crossed in Fall 2011 and will be working this year on encouraging chapters to keep an accurate chapter history. She also might comprise a series of Post Membership Education lessons on the history of the SED!

I hope you will join me in congratulating our newest TBS council members. They can now be reached at sedhistorian@tbsigma.org and sedparliamentarian@tbsigma.org, respectively.

I hope to see many of you this weekend at Florida Day! Make sure your Chapter Progress Reports are in (and approved) by June 1st! And as always, if you need anything, do not hesitate to contact any member of your 2013-2014 TBS SED Council!

5 for 5/15

Dear Southeast District,

Here are the 5 important things to know on May 15. 2013.

1. THE 2014 SED CONVENTION DATES ARE HEREEEEE!

I am proud to announce that the 2014 Southeast District Convention will be hosted at the Georgia Institute of Technology (GT) in ATL, GA the weekend of March 21-23, 2014. As more convention resources become available (i.e. website for registration), we will relay that information to you. Please help me in congratulating the Epsilon Theta chapter of Tau Beta Sigma and the Iota chapter of Kappa Kappa Psi for their hard work and dedication so far!

2. WANT TO GET A SWEET TAN, how about working on it at FLORIDA DAY?!

There are several ITB events happening this summer. Beginning with a fun filled, sun filled weekend in Orlando, FL. Florida Day, hosted by the Zeta Psi chapter of Tau Beta Sigma and the Eta Sigma chapter of Kappa Kappa Psi, is a social event held on the University of Central Florida campus every year. The best part about Florida Day is you do NOT have to be a member of a FL chapter to tan at their pool! I hope you will consider traveling down to Orlando NEXT WEEKEND, May 24-26&, as we celebrate the bond with some rays and good food.

3. CHAPTER SUMMARY REPORTS ARE DUE JUNE 1st

The Chapter Summary Report is National HQ’s way of reading about your individual chapters and celebrating their diversity! Do not forget when submitting this paperwork, the actual form needs to be submitted by June 1st, but your Director of Bands AND your Chapter Sponsor must also approve it by June 1st for it to be considered on time!

4. National Convention Travel

This year, your SED Joint Councils wants to facilitate NatCon travel to as many SED members as possible. To do this, we have devised the SED Takeover NatCon trip. This trip, beginning in Tallahassee, FL, will stop in Birmingham, AL; ATL, GA; and Charlotte, NC; before continuing on to Convention in Springfield, MA. The total cost of the trip is $425, however not only do you get a way there and back, you also get HOTEL while at convention! If you are interested in this trip, please contact me (sedpres@tbsigma.org) AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! We are currently trying to determine whether there is enough interest to make this trip possible. Please reach out and let us know if you are interested!

5. TBS SED Applications due THIS FRIDAY, May 17th!

There are 2 applications for TBS SED due on May 17th, 2013. One is the T-shirt competition application/design and the other is the Appointed Position Applications! If you are interested in applying for either of these great opportunities, please contact me (sedpres@tbsigma.org) or Sal (sedtreasurer@tbsigma.org) ASAP.

Congratulations, recent graduates and initiates! And congratulations to those of you who managed to survive another year of school and life ITB!

I hope to see you all this summer at the various ITB activities. As always, if you have questions about anything, let me know! Happy Wednesday/Thursday!
