On March 17, 1988, 20 sisters were excited and proud to join the installation of a new chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma at Colgate University. The proud traditions of the Strawberry Breakfast and the Alumnae Dessert were continued. The Kappa and Pi Beta Phi pledges participated in the first annual St. Lawrence Monmouth Day. The girls pitched in and cleaned up the two square doing things from yard work to painting benches.
During the 1991-1992 school year, pledges participated in a clean-up day along with other Greek groups. The clean-up was appreciated by the elderly of Canton, NY, whose yards were cleaned.
The Strawberry Breakfast was a big success with the St. Lawrence University faculty. The chapter participated in a Little Brothers and Sisters of Canton Christmas party with SAE and held an Easter egg hunt for the children of Canton.
The chapter participated in lots of events during the 1999-2000 year including the annual canned food drive when the Kappas gathered more food than any other Greek group on campus. The chapter also sold carnations for Valentine’s Day to raise money for Planned Parenthood. They also held a Valentine’s Day tea which included members of the campus community from all over the world who read poetry in their native languages and shared food from their native countries.

In the fall of 1990, chapter members arrived back in the fall to find a new addition to house. The kitchen was doubled in size, very spacious and up-to-date including a large walk-in refrigerator, lots of sink space and a stove with an extremely advanced fire prevention system.
During 1997-1998, the chapter caroled at nursing homes during the holidays and raised money for underprivileged schools in the area. The sisters also walked for hunger, AIDS and breast cancer charities during the year and participated in the Canton Winterfest by supervising community youth during the festival.
In 2006–2007, the chapter Vice President of Academics continued with the semi-annual Scholarship Dessert which honored faculty members on campus who have made a difference in the chapter members’ academic lives.
