For a Lifetime

Paying your annual alumnae dues to Tri Delta is one of the easiest ways to continue to support our sisterhood for generations to come. It’s a once-a-year task that makes a huge difference!

With the generous support of duespaying alumnae, we are able to offer staff and volunteer support for all our collegiate and alumnae chapters; growth and development for all members through programming, leadership training and LEADDD events; The Trident, both in print and online; the Let’s Talk Tri Delta podcast and so much more. Thank you!

Visit My Tri Delta at tridelta.org to see if your dues are current. When you log in, check the “Annual Alumnae Dues” box for your status.

Don’t worry if your dues aren’t current! There are two easy ways to pay.

Join a local alumnae chapter. Dues paid through an alumnae chapter cover annual Fraternity dues along with fees to help with the operations, philanthropic efforts and events of your local chapter.

Don’t fret if there’s not a chapter near you! Member-at-large dues of just $33 a year can be paid right on our website.

Take advantage of all that your dues make possible. Visit LEADDDer.org for dynamic learning and development opportunities, selfpaced and on-demand. Check out upcoming events, including our LEADDD Keynote Series and LEADDD San Diego, at tridelta. org/events. Plus, watch your email and social media for even more that Tri Delta offers our dues-paying alumnae.

Don’t wait to make this small investment in yourself and in our sisterhood!

CALIFORNIA

After 14 months of Zoom meetings, members of the San Jose Alumnae Chapter met at a beautiful park for an in-person dinner! The alumnae chapter president, Heather Pubols Rose, Pacific, presented her officers with lovely orchids to thank them for a remarkable year under unusual circumstances. The group deepened friendships through Zoom, emails, texts, cards and social media. New members were added, and old memberships were strengthened. The San Jose Alumnae Chapter proved that they can weather any storm with loyalty, dedication, kindness and love.

In March, the San Diego Alumnae Chapter participated in “Wags for Wishes.” Throughout the month, members of the chapter donated items to local animal shelters to make a PAWSitive impact in the community. San Diego Alumnae Chapter member Julia Viera, California/Los Angeles, was also named Coronado’s Hero of the Week on March 8, International Women’s Day! Congratulations, Julia!

Nancy Wagner, Boston, member of the San Gabriel/Crescenta Valley Alumnae Chapter, celebrated her 90th birthday on April 17 with more than 60 friends—and Tri Delta sisters—participating in a drive by birthday celebration. Nancy was also presented a letter from Fraternity President Megan Shaw James, Millsaps, to celebrate her special day.

CANADA

On May 6, the Toronto Alumnae Chapter held Circle Degree virtually, welcoming four seniors from the University of Toronto’s Canada Alpha Chapter into alumnae membership: Allyson Webley, Monika Morcos, Gabriella Hermary and Micaela Pacheco.

The chapter also celebrated its first Pearl Circle ceremony with Shannon McKechnie, Toronto, marking her 10th year anniversary of Initiation. Silver Circle (25 years) honored Carly Klassen, Ottawa, and Christine Kralik, Toronto, and Golden Circle (50 years) was performed with five members: Arlene Chan, Jane Stephen, Susan Weston and Susan Armstrong Reid, all Toronto, with special guest Sally Briggs from Phi Delta Chapter, at the University of New Mexico. It was a lot of fun listening to their memories from when they were in the chapter and to hear that they still hang out together!

The chapter also celebrated its Diamond Circle member (75 years), Muriel Smart Masson, Toronto. She was unable to attend the event, but the chapter members sent their love and thanks for her continued sisterhood.

FLORIDA

After utilizing Zoom exclusively for Book Club during the pandemic, Fort Myers alumnae reaDDDers were able to meet both in-person and on Zoom on June 29 with a discussion of “Little Fires Everywhere” by Celeste Ng. Incorporating both meeting methods allowed members who were away for the summer and those who were unable to travel to enjoy the fellowship of Tri Delta sisterhood while sharing their love of books.

Hugs, tears of joy and infectious smiles marked the coming together of the Sarasota Area Alumnae Chapter for Pansy Brunch in the Park—and, there was much to celebrate!

Twenty-four members enjoyed the special event, with tables decorated with silver, gold and blue tablecloths and pansy centerpieces. Boxed lunches were served, and there was ample time for long-time and new members to get better acquainted after no in-person events for over a year.

Chrys Grafrath Hyde, Coe, former Tri Delta’s Foundation Trustee, headed up Pansy Palooza. Members made gifts to the Crescent Fund and Tri Delta’s Foundation to honor and remember Tri Delta sisters, and their efforts raised more than $1,500.

New Sarasota chapter member Jennifer Martin Cloutier, Florida, shared her experience becoming an Honor Initiate. Since joining Tri Delta, Jennifer has been

10 Years of Membership In 2020, In 2020, Tri Delta’s Ritual Committee introduced a special new milestone ceremony, celebrating 10 years of Tri Delta membership: the Pearl Circle ceremony. It was designed as a way to recognize Tri Delta’s young alumnae with a 10-year milestone, consistent with the Silver (25-year), Golden (50-year) and Diamond (75-year) Circle ceremonies. Rather than having to wait until they’ve reached their 25th anniversary of Initiation, alumnae can now recommit to Tri Delta’s timeless Purpose, renew their Initiation vow and fully embrace lifetime membership by celebrating Pearl Circle. Tri Delta hosted its very first celebration of the Pearl Circle ceremony virtually last year following Convention and again this summer as part of our Summer of Sisterhood.

GEORGIA

The Atlanta Alumnae Chapter received three awards from Atlanta Alumnae Panhellenic Association—an appropriate number for our brave, bold and kind Tri Deltas! April Mathis Voris, Alabama, received the Panhellenic Woman of the Year award, while Amber Simmons, rising senior at Brenau, is a Panhellenic scholarship winner for Tri Delta. And finally, the Atlanta Alumnae Chapter was named the Outstanding Alumnae Chapter! To celebrate, members of the chapter gathered at Brook Run Park in Dunwoody, Georgia, for a spring picnic.

HAWAII

At the beginning of summer, members of the Hawaii Alumnae Chapter got together for a pool party—the first time they’d seen each other in person as a group since before COVID-19. They brought snacks to share and spent time chatting and reminiscing outside by the pool. They even enjoyed an impromptu rendition of the “Gleaming White Pearl” song of recruitment—a special moment that showed what sisterhood is all about. No matter the age or chapter, each sister knew the song and it brought them all together in the moment.

KANSAS

Danielle DePriest, Kansas State, Amber Strohbehn, Iowa State, and Jacqueline Hansen, Arkansas, met and became friends in 2017 when they began veterinary medical school at Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine. On May 14, 2021, the three celebrated their graduation together! The Tri Delta sisterhood brought them together both as friends and as lifelong professional colleagues.

MINNESOTA

On June 5, 44 members of the Minneapolis St. Paul Alumnae Chapter gathered for the first time since the pandemic for their Pansy Picnic at Parkers Lake in Plymouth, Minnesota. On a beautiful sunny Minnesota afternoon, the sisters caught up after many months apart, installed new officers, and celebrated the Circle Degrees.

But, for three sisters, the fellowship of Pansy Picnic 2021 did not end as they headed home from Parkers Lake after a lovely afternoon of conversation, lunch and ritual. Within a few blocks of the park, Carol Brown-Mills and Jannette Paulu were jarred by a loud shudder under the floorboards of Carol’s car, which limped itself to the curb and

Sharing Our Sisterhood Through Honor Initiation

Did you know that women who were unable to join Tri Delta as collegiate members can still be welcomed into our sisterhood as alumnae? Tri Delta is always looking for amazing women who are interested in joining our brave, bold and kind members on a path of leadership, community service and friendship through Tri Delta’s Honor Initiate program.

So far this year, Tri Delta has welcomed 38 new alumnae members through Honor Initiation. We held a virtual initiation for 26 women in celebration of International Women’s Day on March 8, and 12 more women joined our sisterhood at our virtual Volunteer Leadership Conference on July 17! We will welcome more sisters on Nov. 7 during our International Founders' Day celebration.

Lisa Frenzel Remsikova, Texas, is Tri Delta’s honor initiate chair and is an honor initiate herself. When she attended the University of Texas in 1985, Lisa was focused on her figure skating career, leaving little time for sorority recruitment. Fast forward 24 years, and she was devoting much of her free time to volunteering, which led her to Tri Delta.

“Throughout my years of volunteering with various organizations, I had met many wonderful women, many of whom happened to be Tri Deltas,” says Lisa. “I noticed the volunteers who inspired me the most and mentored me the best were often Tri Deltas.”

Lisa wanted to focus on an organization that aligned with her values where her time and energy would be valued, appreciated and put to good use. Tri Delta was a perfect match. Since joining Tri Delta in 2009, Lisa has continued to be involved as a volunteer and has enjoyed the opportunity to meet, work with and learn from her Tri Delta sisters. For her, honor initiation meant joining a diverse network of women who share the common goals of living the Purpose of our Ritual.

“There are many incredibly talented women … who either chose not to join during college or did not have the opportunity to join, who could contribute positively to our organization of brave, bold and kind women dedicated to living the values of our Ritual.”

Do you know an outstanding woman who is active in their community, exemplifies Tri Delta’s values and would be a great fit for our sisterhood? Nominate them to be an honor initiate: tridelta.org/our-members/alumnae/honorinitiate.

collapsed. Luckily for them, at that moment Kim Beecham came up behind, pulled over and hopped out to see what the problem was. It was a major problem that required calls to Roadside Assistance and a long wait in the stifling heat for the tow truck. That was the miserable part.

But there was also a beautiful part. The car came to rest near a grassy bank where the ladies could wait safely and in the shade of a lone pine tree! They had lawn chairs and water and the company of each other. Kim drove to a nearby store to replenish water and bring back ice cream treats. The three sisters kept themselves and the wilting pansies from the picnic hydrated, and conversation flowed “at the foot of the pine tree” as the old Tri Delta song goes. Even in moments of distress, the bonds of sisterhood sustain us and can turn an adverse situation into an opportunity for deepening friendship.

NEW YORK

Earlier this year, the Long Island Alumnae Chapter held “Pooling for St. Jude,” a Super Bowl box pool fundraiser. The pool was advertised on the chapter's fundraising Facebook page and shared with friends and family. After the initial pool closed out in less than 24 hours, and with demand from participants, the chapter decided to post another and then another. In just three weeks, six pools of varying box cost were posted and closed out. The pools brought in over 150 participants and helped the chapter raise $2,650 for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

NORTH CAROLINA

On Fat Tuesday, the Charlotte Alumnae Chapter celebrated Mardi Gras by acting out a Mardi Gras Masquerade murder mystery via Zoom! Members enjoyed 'getting into' character with costumes, props and dialects—and they learned that our sisters are good actors! It was a wonderful way to virtually “Let the Good Times Roll!”

TEXAS

Two more Tri Deltas have been named members of Southern Methodist University's 2021-2022 Alumni Board. Melanie Fish and Alice Viroslav have joined fellow sisters Elizabeth Emerson and Alison Ream Griffin, all Southern Methodist. This volunteer board helps create a thriving alumni community at SMU that meaningfully engages alumni and parents. Congratulations, sisters, and thank you for representing Tri Delta through your service!

Three years ago, four teachers—Trisha Harvey, Westminster, Arianna Klitsas, Texas A&M, Stacy Alexander, and Marisa Hurst, both Stephen F. Austin—were hired to open a new intermediate school (Hofius Hawks) in the suburbs of Houston, Texas. None of them taught the same subject, but eventually they found out they all have something in common: they are Tri Delta sisters!

“Teaching is a very stressful job but it made it easier by always seeing a friendly face in the halls,” shared Trisha. “We made it through opening a new school and then teaching during a pandemic, and one of us is now a much deserved retired teacher … You never know where you will meet a sister!”

75DIAMOND SEVENTY-FIVE YEARS ago, these women pledged loyalty and devotion to Tri Delta, and today they have held true CIRCLE to that promise. Join us in celebrating our Diamond Circle sisters! The fraternity has made a donation to Tri Delta’s Foundation in their honor. If you’d like to also make a donation in their honor, or in honor of a specific sister on this list, go to tridelta. org/donate or mail a check to Tri Delta 14951 Dallas Parkway, Ste. 500, Dallas, Texas 75254.
