WASHINGTON DC/SUBURBAN MD ALUMNAE CHAPTER<br />
Fall 2012<br />
President’s<br />
Message<br />
Congratulations to the DC/MD <strong>Theta</strong>s for winning<br />
the Golden Kite Award! The Golden Kite Award is<br />
the highest fraternity award. We were presented<br />
with this award at our international convention this<br />
summer in Tucson, Arizona. The Golden Kite Award<br />
is based in part on membership, education, and<br />
philanthropy. Thanks to your participation in<br />
developing a signature service event, we achieved<br />
the Golden Kite Award this biennium. Our<br />
signature service events were fundraisers at<br />
Vinoteca bistro<br />
in Washington,<br />
D.C. and Black<br />
Finn restaurant<br />
in Bethesda,<br />
Maryland.<br />
Through these<br />
events, we<br />
raised almost<br />
$500 for Court<br />
Appointed<br />
Special<br />
Advocates. We<br />
enjoyed meeting up with sisters and their friends at<br />
the fundraisers. One of our members especially<br />
enjoyed winning a gift certificate donated by Black<br />
Finn at the signature service event! We appreciate<br />
the generosity of these businesses in supporting our<br />
philanthropy, and we are looking forward to hosting<br />
another fundraiser next year.<br />
In 2013, we will also be celebrating Founders Day in<br />
Washington, D.C. This will be a significant Founders<br />
Day for our alumnae chapter, because we will be<br />
commemorating our 95th anniversary. Our alumnae<br />
chapter was initially established in 1918. If you<br />
have stories and photos honoring our chapter’s<br />
history, please send them to us for inclusion in our<br />
Founders Day celebration, website, or newsletter. In<br />
developing our chapter’s history, we can connect<br />
with members throughout the years.<br />

2012 Convention<br />
Report<br />
<strong>Kappa</strong> <strong>Alpha</strong> <strong>Theta</strong> Grand Convention – what a<br />
wonderful experience! Grand Convention is the<br />
legislative body of the Fraternity and meets in even<br />
years to address official Fraternity business. All of<br />
the Alumnae and Collegiate delegates, as well as the<br />
district officers, committee chairs, and Grand<br />
Council members comprise this legislative body<br />
with their votes. All members of the Fraternity are<br />
welcome to attend all of the sessions, but only those<br />
mentioned above have a vote, though everyone may<br />
participate in the deliberations. If it sounds a bit dry<br />
sitting in a beautiful resort discussing legislation<br />
and voting on the next Grand Council, think again.<br />
There are lively and interesting discussions, breakout<br />
sessions for alumnaef and collegians to<br />
address pertinent issues for the chapters.<br />
Each meal has a theme and is beautifully<br />
presented. Of course, the grand moment for<br />
our chapter had our own President, Debora,<br />
accepting the Golden Kite Award! We had a<br />
Fun Night with a western theme and group<br />
dancing, as well as a comedy routine<br />
presented by the MIT <strong>Theta</strong> who was<br />
featured recently on the cover of the KAO<br />
Magazine.<br />
The last day was special for me, as I<br />
conducted the <strong>Theta</strong> Foundation ceremony to<br />
induct the new Trustees and thank the outgoing<br />
members at the Foundation luncheon. I served for<br />
six years as a Trustee, which made me especially<br />
proud when it was announced that the Foundation<br />
had raised nearly $150,000 with the Pansy Patch<br />
project. I was so pleased to receive one of the<br />
pansies from our Chapter before going to the<br />
Convention. The last event is always the banquet,<br />
preceded by a procession into the ballroom with<br />
everyone grouped by chapter of initiation. The<br />
members of the newest chapter are placed near the<br />
ballroom door, with <strong>Alpha</strong> Chapter members the<br />
farthest away. The <strong>Alpha</strong> President and the oldest<br />
members attending, or the one of highest rank, lead<br />
the procession. I was very proud to march with the<br />
Beta Nu President and former Grand President<br />
Mary Jane Beach. All of our Conventions are unique<br />
with features of the times and of the locale, but my<br />
first was memorable, in that I went from Sarasota,<br />
Florida to Banff, Alberta, Canada as the Beta Nu<br />
(Florida State) delegate. I believe I was the collegiate<br />
delegate who had traveled the farthest. From<br />
Chicago we went by chartered train, picking up cars<br />
of <strong>Theta</strong>s coming from other parts of the country.<br />
The “Mounties” met us at the Banff station on<br />
horseback and in their scarlet tunics! From then to<br />
the present I have attended 23 Conventions, which<br />
was the highest number of anyone attending this<br />
Convention.<br />
Conventions are held in lovely resorts: the recent<br />
one at the JW Marriott Starr Pass resort in Tucson.<br />
The 2014 Convention will be held at the Orlando<br />
World Center Marriott in late June. Orlando is<br />
driving distance from the DC area. We will have<br />
Convention rates, and families are to stay at the<br />
resort and share meals with the hundreds of <strong>Theta</strong>s<br />
in attendance. Think about a trip south in June of<br />
2014. Come and be a part of determining the<br />
direction of our Fraternity for the next biennium. It<br />
will be a wonderful experience!<br />

Regional Report<br />
Greetings DC <strong>Theta</strong>s!<br />
I wanted to take a moment to introduce<br />
myself and let you know of some of the<br />
things that are happening in <strong>Theta</strong> on a<br />
national level. My name is Kellie<br />
Dickerson and I am the Alumnae District<br />
Director, or ADD, for District IV (NC, VA,<br />
DC, MD, DE, NJ and Eastern PA). I was<br />
initiated at the Zeta Lambda Chapter at<br />
the College of Charleston in 1994 and<br />
have been an active <strong>Theta</strong> ever since. I<br />
immediately joined my local alumnae<br />
chapter (South Hampton Roads) upon<br />
graduation and have served as its President, Vice President, Social Chairman<br />
and am currently representing our chapter as its Alumnae Panhellenic delegate.<br />
As ADD, my job is to provide support to the alumnae chapters in our district.<br />
This is a new role which is somewhat of a combination of the old ADO and<br />
ADP duties. Rather than have a large district team, we now have an alumnae<br />
committee comprised of ADD’s and Alumnae specialists who can assist in<br />
things such as bylaws or membership retention.<br />
I want to congratulate your chapter on receiving the Golden Kite award at<br />
Grand Convention. This is the highest award an alumnae chapter may obtain<br />
and your chapter earned this by providing the ultimate in the alumnae<br />
experience. A big “pat on the back” is owed to your amazing executive board<br />
who works hard throughout the biennium to plan and execute a variety of<br />
programming to meet the needs of your chapter.<br />
In closing I’d like to share some exciting news that is happening with <strong>Theta</strong>. I<br />
am pleased to announce that <strong>Theta</strong> is expanding to the following chapters over<br />
the next few years: Wake Forest (re-establishing our Zeta Omicron chapter),<br />
Boston University, NC-State, Virginia Tech (re-establishing our Epsilon Nu<br />
chapter) and UNC-Charlotte. If you know of any women who will be<br />
attending these schools over the next few years and may be considering going<br />
through recruitment, please be sure to fill out a recommendation online at the<br />
<strong>Theta</strong> website.<br />
If there is anything I can do for you or your chapter, please let me know! I look<br />
forward to meeting you soon!<br />
-- Kellie Dickerson – ADD IV, Zeta Lambda<br />
Founders Day 2013<br />
The DC <strong>Theta</strong>s are excited to begin planning for Founder’s Day 2013! The<br />
spring function will be a grand event for <strong>Theta</strong>s in the DC area as we also<br />
celebrate the 95th anniversary of the<br />
alumnae chapter. It will be Saturday, March<br />
16, 2013 at the Washington Club in Dupont<br />
Circle. If anyone cares to assist in the<br />
planning process for Founder’s Day 2013,<br />
please contact Meredith Caldwell at<br />
meredithacaldwell@gmail.com or Chrystelle<br />
Zweidler at czweidler@gmail.com. We look<br />
forward to making this a successful and<br />
memorable event.<br />
<strong>Theta</strong>s in Service<br />
October 17th was a wonderful day for walking in 2011 which was a good thing<br />
as we participated in two. The Kidney Kickers team led by Vivianne Pommier<br />
(GW <strong>Theta</strong> Alumna) enjoyed strolling along the C&O Canal in Georgetown<br />
followed by a nice brunch at La Madeleine. The team came in 2nd place for<br />
donations in the Family and<br />
Friends category and 3rd place<br />
overall (includes corporate<br />
donors). The next National<br />
Capital Area Kidney Walk will<br />
occur in May 2013. The Walk to<br />
End Pet Homelessness took<br />
place in Adams Morgan. We<br />
loved seeing all the various dogs<br />
walking so joyfully. Our own<br />
Alicia Lee's dog Snickers was<br />
our team's mascot.<br />
We raised almost $500 dollars for CASA (DC chapter and National<br />
Headquarters) at our two charity benefits at Vinoteca and Black Finn. We also<br />
collected school supplies and holiday gift cards for the CASA children.<br />
their second annual Run<br />
For Love, a 5k race<br />
raising money and<br />
awareness for Yeardley<br />
Love, a UVA <strong>Theta</strong> who<br />
was murdered in a<br />
domestic violence<br />
incident. The Alumnae<br />
decided to walk, leaving<br />
the running to the<br />
younger and in better<br />
shape college students.<br />

we donned our<br />

Panhellenic Update<br />
In June, our group joined up with the <strong>Kappa</strong> <strong>Alpha</strong><br />
<strong>Theta</strong>s at the University of Maryland to participate<br />
in an Open House. The Washington DC Alumnae<br />
Panhellenic Association hosted its first-ever Open<br />
House on the University of Maryland's campus. The<br />
Open House was an opportunity for members of the<br />
public to<br />
view the<br />
houses<br />
and get a<br />
peak<br />
into<br />
sorority<br />
life at<br />
other<br />
houses<br />
on<br />
campus.<br />
The Open<br />
House at<br />
UMD was a<br />
success<br />
because<br />
$650 was<br />
raised for<br />
the<br />
Panhellenic Scholarship Fund. Scholarships will be<br />
awarded in April to outstanding area students who<br />
are members of NPC sororities.<br />
-- Heather Schwenk<br />
Collegiate Chapter<br />
Update<br />
The women from the Gamma Mu chapter are very<br />
proud of our past year and are beginning to<br />
prepare for the upcoming fall semester. Last year<br />
we had a successful recruitment and we are<br />
excited to continue to integrate and teach our<br />
newest members about <strong>Kappa</strong> <strong>Alpha</strong> <strong>Theta</strong>. In<br />
terms of academics, we maintained our impressive<br />
3.44 GPA. We were first out of all the other<br />
chapters for our new member class and second<br />
best in overall Greek life! Our facility director has a<br />
newborn baby<br />
girl, so although<br />
we are sad that<br />
Jess will be<br />
moving out, we<br />
are excited to<br />
welcome Lena<br />
into our house.<br />
The house is<br />
completely full<br />
this semester and<br />
we are looking<br />
forward to<br />
hosting alumnae<br />
events. Also,<br />
Megan and Allison<br />
were amazing<br />
advisors who<br />
stepped down after<br />
this year, but we<br />
can’t wait to get<br />
started working<br />
with Emily Hill.<br />
Everyone is eager<br />
for the school year<br />
-- Hayley Siegel<br />
to begin we are<br />
confident that it is<br />
going to be another<br />
great semester for<br />
Gamma Mu.<br />
Mentoring Program<br />
This summer, the DC/Suburban Maryland<br />
Alumnae Chapter once again held its summer<br />
mentoring and networking program. The chapter<br />
runs this program every summer to allow <strong>Theta</strong><br />
collegians with summer internships in the DC area<br />
to meet other <strong>Theta</strong>s and network with alumnae<br />
who work in their fields of interest. Every collegian<br />
is paired with an alumna who works in their field -<br />
from law to government and politics to the nonprofit<br />
sector - and can meet with them throughout<br />
the summer, learn more about their career paths,<br />
and make valuable contacts for the future.<br />
The other<br />
component<br />
of the<br />
program<br />
was a series<br />
of social<br />
events for<br />
both<br />
alumnae<br />
and<br />
collegians.<br />
This<br />
summer’s<br />
program kicked off with an ice cream social at<br />
alumnae chapter president Debora Lyons’ home, to<br />
welcome interns to DC for the summer and allow<br />
everyone to meet. Later in the summer, several<br />
people attended dinner and a screening of “How to<br />
Lose a Guy in 10 Days” at the Crystal City Outdoor<br />
Film Festival. These events allowed both alumnae<br />
and collegians to meet one another, make friends,<br />
and explore various events around the DC area. The<br />
events also provided college students with a<br />
glimpse into <strong>Theta</strong> after college, and the numerous<br />
ways there are to stay involved after graduation.<br />
The chapter plans to run the mentoring and<br />
networking program again next summer – more<br />
details will be available in the spring!<br />
