A commercial-plumbed Keurig machine means no one needs to refill the water chamber when they brew a cup, and the new sub-zero, all-refrigeration unit increased holding space for after-hour meals. New hardwood floors, walnut cabinets, and quartz countertops complement the dining room décor and make it feel as though the space has always been there. Members received very positive feedback during recruitment this fall, making all of the improvements a worthwhile investment for the women of Lambda Chapter. Many, many thanks for the dedication and talent of Julie Numrich Murray '96, Stacey Satterthwaite Dillon '76, Tree Lynch Hanna '89, Jennifer Inskeep Godar '92, and Kay Kimbell Almanza '85 for making the improvements such a grand success. A special thanks to the many alumni who donated to the projects and the generous contributions from the Parents Club that made these projects a reality.
