FAR NORTH DALLAS AND SURROUNDING COUNTIES, TEXAS The Far North Dallas and Surrounding Counties alumnae chapter was chartered in July 2001, and members held their first official meeting in September. By January, they had grown to almost 50 members. Founders’ Day 2001 found members joining in the celebrations of five other alumnae chapters and four collegiate chapters. In November, the chapter donated more than 70 pounds of food to the Dallas Food Bank. In December, toys were collected and donated to the local Toys for Tots® program. –Robyn McCormac Green (∆B-Texas A&M/Commerce) FAR NORTH DALLAS AND SURROUNDING COUNTIES CONTACT:
