The kaleidoscope of colors seems sym­ bolic of the kaleidoscope of feelings many alumnae have for our Fraternity. To explain their various feelings, let's explore these thoughts: Imagine that seven years have past. You are an alumnae and president of a club near an outstanding active chapter. For several years the chapter requests cookies for their evaluation sessions which your group gladly donates; how­ ever, the chapter never pledges anyone from your area. After many such one­ sided years, the alumnae club decides that its efforts aren't appreciated and stops sending cookies and stops writing references.

Clearwater Bay A small group of just 37 Kappas, many of whom came to the area to retire, the Clearwater Bay Alumnae Association showed that re­ sults depend on effort and determination rather than numbers. These ladies, using their own silver services and table settings and preparing their own food, held a coffee to raise funds for equipment and furnishings for the new Channel Markers building. Channel Markers for the Blind Inc. serves the visually handi­ capped by helping them to live as normal lives as possible by pro­ moting educational, recreational and rehabilitative activities. It is staffed by volunteers and several Kappas have been active in the project since its inception in 1966. Handmade articles and gift certificates from local merchants were used as door prizes and their exhausting but rewarding efforts brought in over $2100 used to provide a Braille library and a piano and organ.
