Annual Fundraiser and Fashion Show


On February 11, 2012, Delta Pi Delta Alumnae Chapter members met at the Country Club of Naples for their Annual Fundraiser and Fashion Show. On this day, members are encouraged to bring their friends to play cards and other games, as well as to share the luncheon and to enjoy the fashion show afterwards. We had especially good participation this year; more than ninety women gathered to celebrate the day and our friendship. Avid card players began the day at 10:00 AM, and an excellent lunch and a fashion show followed. The fashion show was presented by the J. McLaughlin Shop in Venetian Village in Naples, Florida. The Manager of J. McLaughlin just happens to be the daughter of our member, Esther Lawson, who wore a very becoming outfit from the store. Models for the show were our very own members. J. McLaughlin had an array of fashions for purchase at the meeting, and planned to donate back to our chapter 15% of all purchases made at the meeting and also for a week following the meeting.
