→Highlights of 2012
The Epsilon Delta chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma at Arizona State University started off the school year with an incredible recruitment over Labor Day weekend and came out with an amazing pledge class of 2012. We all enjoyed bid day at the Lloyd’s house and shared some of our favorite Kappa traditions with our new members.
Our first sisterhood of the year with the new members was a “Kappa Kookie Decorating Day.” We all had the chance to decorate cookies and craft signs for the new members dorm doors with each other. The second sisterhood of the year was a night of broomball. We had pizza and attempted to play the game even though no one really knew what they were doing. In mid-September it was parents weekend which we enjoyed a tailgate and the ASU v. Utah game with our sisters and parents. That weekend was also our annual golf tournament “Kappa Klassic” where we raised money for The Southwest Autism Research and Resource Center (SARRC).
In October we had “Kappa Presents” date party where the actives presented the new members to all of our friends and dates. That month we also celebrated Big Little reveal, a new member retreat, and of course Founder’s Day! We had a Founder’s Day brunch with some of the alumni from around the state. October was also the month of Homecoming which we participated in.
The month of November started off with our date party called “Barn Dance” and that weekend we also had a Bar-B-Q with the men of Alpha Sigma Phi. Then we moved into Inspiration Week. We had events planned for our soon to be active members such as: “Epsilon Delta Night,” “Campfire Night,” and “Fireside” which led into initiation. To end the month and the semester we had a holiday themed social with the men of Sigma Alpha Epsilon. To begin spring semester we all went to an ASU basketball game as a sisterhood. The following weekend was our All House Spring Retreat up north. In February we had a jungle themed social with the men of Pi Kappa Phi, which was at the Rainforest Café. Valentine’s day Weekend we participated in Panhellenic’s Dance Marathon and also had our date party “Kappa Krush.” Towards the end of the month we were given the opportunity to participate in Mother’s Weekend with our moms.
Our biggest event of spring semester was our philanthropy for Reading is Fundamental that is “Kappa Kickoff,” a football tournament. We raised money for RIF from the teams that participated as well as many books for children and schools in need. To end the semester we were all invited to the date party “Sapphire” to honor our seniors as well as “Senior Will Night” where seniors passed down things to the chapter. During the school year of 2012 and 2013 we also participated in many philanthropies including: Kappa Sigma’s, Sigma Alpha Mu’s, Pi Kappa Phi’s, Lambda Chi Alpha’s, Delta Zeta’s, and Sigma Kappa’s.
