All of our fun and inspiring events are only possible because we are working together. Our Alumnae Board is a talented and loyal group. It has been an honor and privilege serving as President of our Alumnae Association of Tucson the past two years. I am looking forward to the coming year, however, this will be my last year as President.

FROM OUR PRESIDENT
Dear Kappa Sisters,
During the past few years I have learned that serving Kappa is always inspiring and heartwarming. Every year we meet new Kappas (our membership is growing) and enjoy our treasured and dear old friends.
We have the good fortune to interact with and support the Gamma Zeta Chapter at the U of A along with our outstanding Advisors and House Board members.
Again this year our Alumnae Board is planning a Fall Kickoff Luncheon, a Founders Day Tea with the Gamma Zeta Chapter, a Holiday Luncheon and Bazaar to kickoff the holiday season, and a spring Senior Brunch to celebrate our graduating seniors.
Depending on your schedule and interests, you also have the opportunity to join our very fun small groups, Book Club, Bridge Club, Out to Lunch Bunch, and Night Owls.

NEW LOGO, MOTTO
“…at the 72nd Biennial Convention we introduced a new brand for Kappa Kappa Gamma. For the past year, we’ve spent time listening to you – our members – reflecting on who we are, and determining where we’re going together.
This process was not about redefining who we are. It was an opportunity to rearticulate our long-held belief in a way that is relevant for today and for our future members as we approach our Sesquicentennial in 2020.
Through this process, we’ve been able to: review our mission of over 30 years, distill our beliefs and culture – something we’ve been living each and every day – into written core values, and develop a new visual expression of our brand.
The full rollout will happen in the coming academic year. In the meantime, we invite you to dream boldly. live fully.”
