Installation of New Texas Chapter

Courageous Beta Pi Members
Sponsor a New Chapter in Texas
I was delighted to be in the audience recently when the Texas State Organization Expansion Team conducted a new chapter installation led by:

Joanne Webb Davis - State Organization Expansion Chair
Nancy Newton - State Organization President
Betty Vines - TSO Executive Secretary/Treasurer
Lori Shontz - TSO Area V Coordinator

Beta Pi Chapter women realized that their members had to drive long distances to attend meetings and took the courageous step of discussing expansion to be a solution for their members.  The result was that seven of their members, six reinstated members, and eleven new initiates formed Mu Omega Chapter on Sunday, October 19, 2014, in Premont,TX.

What a thrill it was to see my name on the signature line of the new chapter charter!  I was asked to bring greetings to the charter members, and my thoughts centered on offering my wish that they will think of themselves as a member of a true International Society.  With over 81,000 members in 17 countries, DKG is realizing its mission of impacting education world wide. I also encouraged them to set personal goals for participation beyond the chapter level.  Only then will they experience all that Delta Kappa Gamma has to offer.
