Highlights of 2019
==Highlights of 2019==
Our chapter members were highly involved in philanthropy this year both through Kappa and other on campus organizations. During spring parents' weekend, the entire chapter participated in our annual crawfish boil to raise money for our philanthropy, Books for Keeps. Our fall philanthropy event was reimagined this year. Instead of a casino night, our philanthropy chair, Alexis Seward, and her assistants organized a drive through where students and Athens residents could purchase tickets ahead of time and pick up warm Mama's Boy biscuits, an Athens favorite. Outside of Kappa, Teagan Sullivan acted as the Kappa Team Captain and as a member of the Greek Leadership Committee within UGA Miracle, UGA Panhellenic's official philanthropy. She organized a Kappa team to compete in the Miracle flag football tournament and the Kappa team was the winner of the Miracle Chili Cookout this semester. Additionally, 30 girls on the Kappa team competed in Sigma Delta Tau's Greek Grind which is a dance competition that raises money for Prevent Child Abuse America.  [[File:Delta Upsilon Holiday Greetings 2019.jpeg|thumb|Delta Upsilon Holiday Greetings 2019]]
This year brought many fun, new sisterhood events to our chapter that not only brought the chapter closer together but also connected us with members of other sororities. During work week, we had recruitment practice with Delta Phi Epsilon. Led by Sara McGhee, we have begun having sisterhood events at Purvelo Cycling. Most recently, we had a spin class with Alpha Gam. The new member class participated in the most sisterhood events to encourage the newest new member class to bond. The new members had a bowling night with some of chapter council and had a Mellow Mushroom party with their bigs the week after Big Little night. Another sisterhood event we had to encourage the upper classmen to reach out to the younger new member classes was our planner and organization party at the house this fall. Members of every new member class attended and learned organization tips to start out the school year. Additionally, we divided everyone up according to major and had upperclassmen available to answer major-specific questions for the new new member class. Another sisterhood event that we enjoyed this year was our Chick-fil-A and K9 lunch where puppies from a local animal shelter came to play on the front lawn.
The chapter's overall nature is one of enthusiasm and joy for life. Our members are seizing every opportunity presented to them and finding ways to pursue their passions on campus, in the Athens community, and beyond.
