Favorite 51¶¯Âþ Memory:ÌýI have so many favorite memories, but as a cheerleader I was fortunate enough to travel with the football team to away games. A memory that sticks out the most, has to be coming back to campus with the football team after Matt Ryan's 2007 last minute away game win (in the pouring rain) against VA-Tech! We were unexpectedly greeted by the students, the pep band and 51¶¯Âþ community in the early early early morning hours outside of Alumni Stadium! Pulling up on the buses and being greeted with the fight song and 51¶¯Âþ enthusiasm was indescribable. To see and feel all the 51¶¯Âþ love was unforgettable, especially after being outside in the cold and rain and after a long journey home.
Why I got involved:ÌýI met my best friends, shared my best memories and even met my husband because of my ties to 51¶¯Âþ. I wanted to get involved in the local chapter to keep the 51¶¯Âþ spirit and community thriving in my local area.
What are your local favorites in DC.:ÌýI tend to stay in the Northern Virginia area and our favorite thing to do is walk around Old Town, Alexandria down towards the waterfront and enjoy all the restaurants and art installations in the area! I also highly recommend visiting the DC monuments at night to see them all lit up - so beautiful!
Fun Fact:ÌýIn my spare time I participate in some of the Little Theater of Alexandria's musicals!
