HOUSE RENOVATIONS CONTINUE
Your Donations Make a Difference

igma Chapter is looking forward to its 98th year on the KU campus.
Fall recruitment went very well and we were excited to welcome
58 new members. Our home at 1339 West Campus Road houses 80 of
our active members, so new members live in the dorms and seniors live
out. Regardless, 165 women are able to experience the house daily.
Our beautiful Georgian colonial, with the best view of the Campanile, is
ready for the new school year. We were able to complete many summer
projects while the active members were off campus for the summer
break. Summer work included replacing 13 windows; so far we have
replaced 40 of the 87. We also renovated a bathroom on the third floor;
two more bathrooms will need renovation next summer. Finally, we
repainted, cleaned all the carpets, and kept up with annual maintenance.
All for a grand total of $118,000 for the summer's expenditures.
Sigma could not be more grateful for all of your financial help throughout
the year. Your donations truly make a significant difference in maintaining
and restoring our very old structure. The collegians look forward to your
Sigma visits during the year. They welcome you back and will greet you
with Gamma Phi hugs of gratitude.
In ΠΚΕ,

igma Chapter would like to thank Megan Knop Allen '99, new member
advisor, and Lindsey Rhoton Ingram '01, education vice president advisor,
who have done a wonderful job working with the chapter for the past several
years. They are both stepping down to spend more time with their families. Several
advisory positions are open at this time, and some only require that you keep in
contact with your officer once a month, and can be done through e-mail and Skype
for alumnae who don't live in the Lawrence area. If you have the time to give back to
Gamma Phi in this rewarding position, please contact Brianne Brown Cook '96 at
brianneb7@hotmail.com.
