Shamrock Challenge

The Gamma Nu chapter of Kappa Delta holds a Shamrock Challenge each spring to benefit Prevent Child Abuse America. Since 1981, all collegiate chapters and many alumnae associations participate in Kappa Delta's Shamrock Event held annually in March. Eighty percent of our total earnings go toward Prevent Child Abuse Ohio, while twenty percent of every KD chapter's proceeds go toward Prevent Child Abuse America. Last year, the Gamma Nu chapter's Shamrock Challenge took place on March 24th on Central Quad. The theme was Double Dare. Participants were divided into teams of four, and performed such obstacles as finding a flag in a pool full of noodles, and battling their way through a pit of balloons.

If you have further questions about Shamrock please contact MJ Tourangeau. To learn more about Prevent Child Abuse America please visit the Prevent Child Abuse America website.

Girl Scouts of America

Each year the Gamma Nu chapter of Kappa Delta sponsers a local girl scout troop. Sisters help the girls earn badges and patches and even help the girls sell cookies!

Fall Ball

Gamma Nu began the annual KD Fall Ball in 1996. Each year the sisters of Gamma Nu dance the night away with individuals involved with the Butler County Board of Mental Retardation. We are joined by the brothers of Phi Kappa Tau for a wonderful evening of socializing and dancing.

Adopt-a-Block and Spring Clean Oxford

These two programs are sponsored by the Greek community and encourage Greek members to take care of the Miami community and the environment. Each week, five chapter members from each Greek organization take a block of the Mile Square and clean up all of the trash. Spring Clean Oxford is held each spring in which a large number of Greek members come together to clean up trash from throughout the community. Kappa Delta strongly supports both of these programs and encourages its members to participate!
