COOK OF THE WEEK - ALPHA OMEGA AND UM WOMEN

Submitted by admin on Wed, 05/21/2014 - 7:34am

Every year during the month of May the Alpha Omega Chapter of DELTA KAPPA GAMMA (DKG) International Society for Key Women Educators meets at the Faith United Methodist Church in Gilmore City for their annual meeting. This all started years ago when Velma Juelfs (since deceased) was a United Methodist Woman and also a member of the Alpha Omega Chapter of DKG International Society. She hosted one of these meetings with the help of the other UMW women. The teachers enjoyed the food and loved the fact that the church is easily accessible for all people. Rae Jean Nuehring of Albert City gave me the following information about the Alpha Omega Chapter and about the DKG International Society for Key Women Educators: “As an honorary society of 90,000 key women educators in 18 countries, members in DKG represent all levels of education. We are a powerful organization with the goals to support excel-lence in education and promote professional and personal development of our members.
