Star Status
Just as all of you worked hard this year to receive membership points, our chapter as a whole
also works toward a status based on a set of requirements from the national office.
I am proud to announce that we have earned Gold Star Status this year! That’s a level up from
last year!

Suggestions for next year?
We came up with some great suggestions for next year:

Having speakers at meetings
Events at meetings
Have a table at main stage
Email all members who are in the society (have paid dues)

2. Scholarship awareness
Volunteering with safer sex patrol by doing bar patrol/kit stuffing
Habitat for humanity
Prizes/raffles at meetings
Team up on activities with other groups
Kids Against Hunger fundraising all year
Get a Twitter account
Have a captain/chair/committee for Relay
I would love to hear any other suggestions any of you may have. If it’s a suggestion for events
we do, how to get attendance up at meetings or what our e-board can do to make it a great
experience for you I really appreciate any input. Please don’t hesitate to email me at
