It’s with great sadness that the committee planning the 90th anniversary celebrations has made the decision to cancel the May 2nd Luncheon. During the current pandemic we want to put the safety of our sisters first. In lieu of a gathering we are launching a social media campaign to show out sisters celebrating Canada Alpha’s 90th from home. we will be posting further details on this site and on our various social media platforms.

during this time we encourage you to share your Canada Alpha memories and 90th wishes using the hashtags #DDDCA90 & #CanadaAlpha

Every November our sisterhood gathers to celebrate the founding of our fraternity. This year we will be incorporating the celebration of our Circle Degree, Silver and Golden Circle ceremonies into our Founder’s Luncheon at the beginning of November. We will be sharing more details in the months to come.

For those who have purchased tickets for the May Luncheon refunds will be processed in May. If you would prefer to direct your ticket purchase to the Legacy gift please contact our treasurer Liz at emelo@sympatico.ca 

We hope that all of our sisters are keeping well and encourage you to reach out to your sisters in support, and demonstrate steadfast love towards one another.
