Hello everyone!

It is getting closer to the in-person party for our 70th anniversary! It’s a very exciting time!


This vlog will explain the ticketing and an exciting thing… ordering t-shirts!  Yes! Will have t-shirts this year!  This vlog will explain the system for tickets.  As we go through this system I will be touching my screen as this is a new platform. I am not familiar with platform so I hope we all will go through this together.


When you first opened this link, you will see me in a vlog on the right side of the screen. As you are looking at your screen on the left you will see “General Admission.”  That is the ticket for the dinner and conclave – but really, it’s for dinner.  The doors will open at 4:30 pm. The event will start at 4:53 p.m. There will be a social hour prior to dinner.  The $50 will cover your dinner. 

So, if you want to attend dinner, please enter the number of tickets desired for dinner. 


Next item is the t-shirts – yes!  The t-shirts will be black with red DE crest printed on the left side over the heart.  On the back there will be a turtle with a rose in the middle of the shell.  You do have an option between V-necked or round necked t-shirt.  If you want a t-shirt enter the number of t-shirt desired. 


The third item in red colored font is asking whether you would like to donate to IADES.  If you are unable to attend this party and conclave please consider donating.  If you are going, please also consider donating!  Our endowment fund needs to growth so we can reap maximum benefits.  Please do consider donating either way.


After entering your number of tickets, t-shirts, and/or donation, click on submit towards the bottom.  However…

On the right side is all the information you will need regarding this event.  Maybe prior to submitting you would read through this side first.  This information is listed under the video with me in it.  You will see the following “Come and celebrate Delta Epsilon Sorority’s 70th anniversary!!”  After this line the letterings will start to fade and you will see “More details.” Click on “More details” to read all the information, especially about t-shirts.


[Pause as I click for more info]


There are important dates to remember: 

September 1st:  T-shirt orders are due by this date.  There will be a group of students from Indiana School for the Deaf who will making these t-shirts for us!   The shirts will be $25 each.  Some of the t-shirt profit will go to IADES Endowment Fund and some will be given back to ISD for doing the t-shirts.  They need time to do the shirts.


October 11th:  Deadline for dinner headcount during the conclave.  Why this due date? It is one week before our conclave on the 19th!  The chef needs to know how much to cook for the dinner.


Next section will show pictures of the t-shirts.  I realized that the pictures are not very clear but it is the best I could do.  My apologies.  After the picture there are two size charts – top is for V-necked and next is for round necked.  This is there for your sizing reference.  Hope this will help you make correct size selection.


After reviewing this section and clicking on “submit” you will be taken to a page where you will see fields to put your name, email address, and please enter what year you were initiated into Delta Epsilon Sorority.  Next you will enter the style and size of t-shirt you wish to order – top part is for V-necked and bottom is for round-necked. 


Important information regarding t-shirts: We will not be shipping t-shirts to your home.  Please pick up your shirt at the conclave.  If you want a t-shirt but will not attend the conclave, you may make arrangements for someone else to pick up your shirt. If you arrange someone to pick up your shirt, please enter that person’s name in the form.  This will prevent any confusion regarding the pick-up.

Scroll down until see the total of your selections.  Note:  After the order number you will see a line item that says “Support 100% free platform we use.”  You will see a field with a percentage.  This money is for the website that we used for this ticketing.  It is free for us with the understanding there would be donations to the company who developed this platform.  Feel free to change the percentage – percentage of your total purchase.  Use the drop down to change percentage or specify specific dollar amount.  Then you will see your total for purchases/donations.


Next section is how you will pay for your purchases/donations.  Only three options will be accepted: debit, credit card, or Apple/Google Pay.  All transactions will be directly deposited into our checking account.  Press confirm after pay selection.  Follow instructions until completed.


If you have any questions regarding this please feel free to reach out to us at contactiades@gmail.com. This is the same email address you get your e-blasts from.


I hope to see you at the conclave which will be held on Gallaudet campus, second floor of Ole Jim, very special for us to use that space!  Again, I look forward to seeing you and have a great summer!  Until then, bye!
