100 Years of Sisterhood in St. Louis On March 9, 1920 we were formally chartered as the St. Louis Alumnae Chapter, and we've been going strong ever since. Our 100 year history gives us much to be proud of, and we need all sisters' help to celebrate. Right now we are primarily looking for memories and memorabilia. If you have a favorite memory you'd like to share, pictures and other treasures to lend, or if you are interested in helping, please contact us at stlgpb100@gmail.com. Mark your calendars for the weekend of March 7th, 2020. We are working out details of a Centennial Celebration event and will share more information soon. Save the Date! |
