The "country day" was like a Kappa picnic... we served mini hotdogs and lemonade.

I always heard that the skit was so popular, and had been performed at national convention as well. I bet there are plenty of people out there who can help share more details on this.
Kappa Pickers started at Delta Chapter in the 60s and became popular with many chapters across the country. I think one group from Delta chapter even made a record, and you can sometimes find it in antique stores or on eBay. You don't find many chapters with a Pickers group anymore because it's not really a popular style of music.
