HISTORY OF THE COLUMBIA, MO ALUMNAE-PATRONESS CHAPTER |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
March 4, 1967 marked the first day positive action was taken at a morning coffee at the home of Elaine Grev. More than thirty alumnae and patronesses of the Columbia area were invited. Ten alumnae and six patronesses were present.
|
|
|
|
The next meeting following summer vacation was September 1 at the home of Helen Harrison. Mrs. John Rufi's resignation was accepted, because a chapter cannot charter with a patroness holding the office of President. Elaine Grev became acting chairman. |

|
In June, 1968, a planning meeting was held at the home of Elaine Grev. A spark of interest by everyone seemed to turn every plan into a huge success. The momentum was rolling: the results of the questionnaires sent out were reviewed; Bobbie Burk was the newly elected Pi Province President; and the chapter was finally taking shape. Summer, 1968 was to be remembered by all as the turning point of the Columbia Alumnae-Patroness Chapter. All were excited about the interest shown. |

|
|
The first big meeting in 1968 was at the home of Martha Keys on Sept. 23. As a result of the summer 1968 work, it was a huge success. A large turn-out elected officers: President - Elaine Grev; Vice President - Martha Ward; Membership Chairman - Gloria Bradley; Secretary-Treasurer - Grace Louise Baker; Social Chairman - Martha Keys; Historian - Sandra Rosengren, to be assisted by Mary Roebuck and Mary Lynn Tuck. |
