Shamrock Week 2013

Because Shamrock week is such an important time for Kappa Delta, it deserves its' own post. Every year we work hard to raise money for Prevent Child Abuse America and the Sally Kate Winter's home. Through all of the support from our friends, family, and alumnae, we as a chapter succeed in supporting our philanthropy.

We kicked off the week by selling pinwheels and cookies on the drill field. The pinwheels represent the fact that everyone deserves to have an enjoyable childhood, and that is something that should never be taken away. 




 Following selling pinwheels and cookies on the drill field, we held an Easter egg hunt in the Junction. The Easter egg hunt began with a tournament between sororities and fraternities. After some friendly and fun competition, we opened the hunt up to local children who brought their Easter baskets and collected as many eggs as they could carry. 






We ended Shamrock Week with Kappa Delta Pancake Late Night. All of the proceeds from this event go to Prevent Child Abuse America and the Sally Kate Winter's home in West Point, Mississippi. March was a long and tiring month for Kappa Delta, but we loved every minute of it. Every time we go visit the children at the Sally Kate Winter's home, we get to see and feel the work we are doing. That in itself keeps us going with the efforts to raise money for this wonderful charity. Shamrock Week may be over, but we never stop trying to better the lives of those who surround us.


Go Confidently, Go KD. 

March 2013




Though March was a busy month we had a great time at the two swaps we had!
Tacky Tourist swap @ Rick's cafe












Mathletes and Athletes swap @ Rick's cafe

















Aside from the swaps....

We sold Girl Scout cookies on the Drill Field



For our final Girl Scout event of the year, we took some of the troops on a tour of MSU's campus and then acted out some "bully doesn't bully" skits for them in the chapter room.
