Kappa Delta July 2013 Update

The Louisville KDAC had a very busy and exciting Spring!  Below are some of the highlights!!

 

Louisville KDAC turns 100!!!

The Louisville Kappa Delta Alumnae Chapter was one of the first 10 Alumnae Chapter's charted by National Kappa Delta and has remained active since January 1, 1912.  The first group of women would meet the first Wednesday of the month at the Kappa Delta Apartment on the University of Louisville's Campus and would have dinner followed by a short program.  They were the first Alumnae Association to create and send out a 'news sheet' to active members....it's amazing how far we have come!!

 

100th Anniversary Celebration - April 2013

 As Alumnae our involvement is proof to the collegians that sorority is for a lifetime....college days are but just the first steps! Beyond them lies a lifelong loyalty and friendship! Being part of our national sisterhood generates a great pride in each of us! The Louisville AC has always been a great source of pride, not only to the national organization, but also in the Louisville Community and the Commonwealth of Kentucky. As we begin a new year we hope that we will continue to grow our membership, contribute more to the community and the local chapter!
