Dear Members,This is the time of year when we gather with friends and family to reflect on memories from the past year and discuss prospects for the coming year. As you reflect I hope that you are able to remember more good than bad and that you are as thankful as I am to have so many wonderful friends in our Alpha Kappa Chapter.
As we look forward to the New Year I truly hope that the following Irish Blessing holds true for you!
May you always have work for your hands to do.
May your pockets hold always a coin or two.
May the sun shine bright on your windowpane.
May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend always be near you.
And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.
May your pockets hold always a coin or two.

May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.

And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.
Please note that our next meeting is scheduled for January 19th at the home of Connie Lewis.
I look forward to seeing everyone at Connie's!
Smiles,Janice
Looking Back...
The Joint Initiation Ceremony was well attended. Kay Collins delivered an inspirational speech that made each of us think about how we reach out and touch our students. Gwendolyn Dixon is our chapter's newest initiate. Gwendolyn, along with a number of chapter members, gathered at Riversink Elementary School for the Joint Initiation Ceremony. Gwendolyn is an Associate Professor of Elementary/Early Childhood at Florida A&M University. Welcome Gwendolyn!
Looking Ahead…
Legislative Day is scheduled for February 7th. This year the event will be held at Westminster Oaks. Look for more specific details in the near future.
