Alpha Delta Pi Memorial Headquarters and Executive Office 9/25/05

 

Atlanta, GA - The Memorial Headquarters and the Executive Office Building of Alpha Delta Pi was dedicated on Sunday September 25, 2005.  The ceremony took place at 2:00 PM with tours of the newly renovated Memorial Headquarters and new Executive Office Building at 1386 Ponce de Leon Ave NE Atlanta, Georgia.  The dedication, reception & grand opening (Come Home to Alpha Delta Pi) was hosted by Grand Council and the Alpha Delta Pi Foundation Trustees. Invitations were mailed to all Alumnae Associations, International Officers, and Chapters in August. This celebration was a milestone in Alpha Delta Pi history.

 

Alpha Delta Pi was founded May 15, 1851 at Wesleyan Female College in Macon, GA, and holds the distinction of being the first sorority. To date, Alpha Delta Pi has initiated more than 182,500 women, many of whom are actively involved in one of over 130 collegiate chapters or 150 alumnae associations throughout the United States and Canada. www.alphadeltapi.org

Hello Alumnae Association Presidents and Sisters.
On Sunday, September 25th, Grand Council and the Alpha Delta Pi Foundation Trustees will host the "grand opening" and dedication of the newly renovated ADPi Memorial Headquarters and Executive Office at 1386 Ponce de Leon Ave NE.  This is a very special day for all sisters to "Come home to Alpha Delta Pi".  If you haven't toured the new office building or had the pleasure of seeing the house since its renovation, this is a perfect time to come and see it. 
We hope as many District 1 Sisters will be able to attend.

Hey Everyone: As we all know it's going to be another hot day out there (heat index in the 105-110 range).  Please look at your outdoor operations and make sure heat injury prevention awareness is a part of your daily routine.  Attached is a CHPPM heat injury prevention pdf.  The last half of the document is a commander / supervisor guide to risk management of heat casualties.  It gives you the risk management tools and info to prevent this kind of problem. - Amy E. Green
 

July 2005 - Carmen Polpanich (adeepialum@yahoo.com) was appointed by Grand Council to the position of District I Chapter Finance Director.

Date: November 8, 2004

Re: Christmas for Safeplace Family

This is a list of sizes and some suggestions for the family you have adopted. I do not have a specific list, but anything in the age range will be fine. We ask that you do not buy any toys that pertain to violence, bicycles or skate boards. If possible we would like to have the gifts no later than December 10th.  We ask that you not wrap the children’s gifts so that the mother will be able to do this herself. This helps her feel like she has contributed to her children’s Christmas. Thank you so much for helping Santa. Your thoughtfulness is greatly appreciated.

 

  1. Mom (sizes) , Tops: 1 XL, Pants: 20/22, Shoes: 9, Items of interest: Household items and decorations, Body works,

** NEW Alumnae - Chapter PHILANTHROPY Project:

 

10/16/2004

Dear Sisters,

 

The Tennessee Valley Alumnae Association is beginning a philanthropy project to collect tabs (a.k.a. pop-tops) for the Ronald McDonald House.  We will be working on this year round project with the Zeta Eta Chapter to help raise money for the RM House.  This will be an easy project, and it would be wonderful if everyone could help by collecting the tabs at your workplace, home, church, community center, a near by school, or any other great place that you can think of for this project.  TVAA will be collecting the tabs throughout the year during any of our alumnae meetings/socials or ZH events.  If you need a place to drop the tabs off before a TVAA or ZH event you can take the tabs to the ZH Chapter room or you can contact me (Ashley), and I will take care of them. 

 

Here are a few fun facts about tabs you might want to share: 

  • We only collect the tabs because it's a higher grade of aluminum, plus it's much cleaner.
  • Over 400 million tabs have been collected generating over $300,000
  • It takes 900 tabs to equal one pound, so each tab counts 

Thank you again so much, and if you have any questions or need anything please let me know. 

 

Loyally,

Ashley Miner Stutts

Florence, Alabama, North Alabama (Tennessee Valley) Alumnae Association; Andrea Childress (ZH ‘95), Alumnae President, would like to thank and congratulate everyone for all of their time and donations this year.  Because of our hard work and continued love for our sorority the North Alabama Alumnae Association won DIAMOND 4 POINT and ACHIEVEMENT AWARD at 2003 Alpha Delta Pi Convention. The Zeta Eta (University of North Alabama) chapter also won the DIAMOND 4 POINT along with Recruitment and Legacy Awards!  Laura Beth Daws (ZH '99) won the Dorothy Shaw Award.  Zeta Eta's former Province Director and current District Team Director, Mrs. Claire Gwaltney, was elected to one of the International Vice President of Collegiate Chapter Membership positions.  What a proud and amazing time for the women of the North Alabama area!  

 

The fall of 2004 will bring big changes for the University of North Alabama and the alumnae association is ready to help!  The school will be opening their new sorority dorms, and work will begin to provide the chapter assistance in preparing and completing a new and beautiful chapter room.  There will be a donation name plate added to all items in the newly renovated chapter room to pay tribute to all who continue to support Zeta Eta chapter. For more details on how you can help or on up coming events please check out our web site https://tvaaadpi.tripod.com/ or email us TVAAadpi@hotmail.com.

 

The North Alabama Alumnae Association is also excited about beginning their new philanthropy project with the local schools. The Pop-Top Drive goes in effect in the fall of 2004.

Florence, AL; North Alabama (Tennessee Valley) Alumnae Association was instrumental in organizing a 30th Anniversary (Feb.17, 1973) celebration for the Zeta Eta chapter at the University of North Alabama. Zeta Eta was the first sorority on this campus so our anniversary was monumental not only to our chapter, but all over campus and in the community. The anniversary event was held March 1, 2003 with an open house of the Alpha Delta Pi chapter room, Jewel Degree, and continued into the evening with a semi-formal / banquet including a slide show, awards, dancing & old friends meeting the Chapter's new sisters. All guests that attended brought canned items & cleaning products for donation to the Ronald McDonald House.


The TVAA has also volunteered time & money to the Zeta Eta chapter for Recruitment, workshops & remodeling of the chapter room. The association mails a semi-annual newsletter, and has begun to have quarterly meetings in 2003. Also, new to our association this year is an email account & web site (http://tvaaadpi.tripod.com). This has been instrumental in helping all of us keep in touch with our TVAA members & ZH alumnae that are not so close to home. If you wish to be added to our mailing list please contact us by email (TVAAadpi@hotmail.com) or snail mail  (P.O. Box 668 - Florence, AL 35631).

 

At Grand Convention (July 25 - 29, 2003) TVAA won Diamond 4 Point for Alumnae Associations and Achievement Award. In November the Zeta Eta chapter welcomed TVAA & their chapter’s alumnae on for UNA’s Homecoming with an Open House. They will also be welcoming everyone back on December 7, 2003 for ZH’s Annual Alumnae/Chapter Christmas Tea.


We are excited about continuing in 2004 to live true to our ever faithful motto, "We Live For Each Other" by supporting our undergraduate chapter and teaching them by example that Alpha Delta Pi is for a lifetime!
