Yes the alpha chapter is closing. We were told that that sunday's meeting with Suzzane Spicer (intrna'l pres), Nancy Knickerbocker( vp extension) were coming to discuss our upcoming formal recrutiment in the spring. This was the LAST thing on our minds. We are all devestated. Most of our alumnea are taking some sort of action, we have received lots of support. WE are closing due to low membership, we were pu on a new program for chapter membership. It is ideally a 3 year program but we were told most chapter are on it for longer. We were given this title in August, we were give 1/6 of the time of the "ideal" to get stuff done. WE were not given a chance. WE were given up on. WE (sisters) never gave up. And we still will not. If you can please write a letter, email or call headquaters. We appreciate all the support we can get.
