alabaMa oMiCron and alpha oMiCron Chapters
Celebrate Merger
On March 3, 2010 members of Alabama Omicron and Alabama
Alpha Omicron Chapters met to discuss the merger of the
two chapters. 2008-2010 Alabama State President Frances Revel
assisted with the merger process. Alabama Omicron Chapter
was chartered in 1957. In 1961, Omicron sponsored the charter
of the new Alpha Omicron Chapter. Now,
nearly 50 years later, members of the two
chapters have met to finalize their merger,
taking the name of the original Omicron.
Officers of the “new” Alabama Omicron
Chapter were elected at the April meeting
and inducted at the May meeting: President
Jean Posey, President-Elect Deborah
Nelson Brewer, Treasurer Janice Samford,
Recording Secretary Teresa Pittman, Corresponding
Secretary Barbara Jones, Sergeant-at-Arms
Elizabeth Rowell, Chaplain
Bobbie Rahn, Historian Barbara Wilkerson
and Past President Anita Griffin.
Florida Fidelis rho Chapter
Celebrates suCCess
Florida Fidelis Rho Chapter, installed
in 1992, continues to grow. At the first state
convention after the chapter received its
charter, it was named top chapter in Florida
and has received the same designation at each successive
state convention. In the Pearls of Achievement
Award program, it has received six pearls for
six years and seven pearls in the other 11 years.
Members say one of the reasons for the chapter’s
strength is the quality of the founding members,
who “set amazing examples of dedication for
those who have followed in their footsteps.” Each
member is involved in the work of the committees
and in raising funds for the annual $3,000 scholarship
given to a rising junior or senior in education at
a local university.
One member said, “It is an honor to be a member
of this chapter and we will continue to strive for
excellence in the purposes of this organization.”
