Many of the events will only need limited assistance from the AA and alumnae; however please mark Sunday, September 27th at 2 p.m. as the Bid Day Celebration, which will be on the campus of UALR.
Also, help from our young alumnae may be requested during welcome week (August 21-28), and possibly for orientation dates (July 10, Aug 4, of Aug 12).

If you are still interested in CAB (which will probably be the alumnae called upon to assist with the recruitment efforts) and have not let us know, please contact me or Louise Geib at chapterservices@kappadelta.org
Scholarship Committee - The scholarship committee is now beginning to plan and implement funding the UALR scholarship for a member of the new colony. To endow a $1000 scholarship, they are looking to raise $12,500. Please let us know if you are interested in making a donation or in the fundraising efforts.
