Sorority Information

In 1999, several former Kiowa Tribal Princesses decided to organize an alumni group and decided on the name "Kiowa Tribal Princess Sorority." The purpose of the organization is twofold: networking former princesses for social and business reasons and being a support system for the reigning Kiowa Tribal Princess. The main annual event for the sorority is hosting a reception honoring the Kiowa Tribal Princess during the American Indian Exposition. The reception began mainly as an event for the princesses representing the member tribes of the Exposition but has also attracted many other guests over the years and has become a mini-reunion for former Kiowa Tribal Princesses.

In the fall of 2010, the Kiowa Princess Sorority began drafting a constitution and bylaws, which was finished and adopted in February 2011. The constitution sets regular meetings, defines eligibility for membership and duties of officers, and covers expectations for Kiowa Tribal Princesses wishing to become part of the sorority.

Information Regarding Sorority Shawls 

D&D Embroidery has been selected to make the Kiowa Tribal Princess Sorority shawls. D&D will be provided with the list of all the former Kiowa tribal princesses who wish to place an order, and the cost of the lettering and logo placement will be $45.00 for each shawl.

They Kiowa seal will be in the center of the shawl with the sorority name above (block letters) and the name of the princess (script) and years served beneath under the the seal. The shawls will be royal blue gabardine fabric with white fringe, similar to the tribal princess shawls from 1999-2006. D&D prefers that they receive the raw fabric to monogram and then the princesses can have the shawls hemmed and fringed.

D&D Embroidery is located at 120 E Broadway St, Anadarko, OK. Phone: 405-247-9695. The email address is [email protected] for all out of towners/out of staters. You can order by phone, in person or via email. For the people too far out, we can get the fabric after we receive your payment.

Hancock Fabrics in Norman carries Royal Blue gabardine.
