Hyattsville/Landover (MD) Alumni Chapter

1st October 1978

First Group Meeting

In early October, 1978, a group of twelve (12) KAPPAS expressed an interest in establishing an Alumni Chapter in the Prince George's County, Maryland. The Provincial Polemarch was contacted and granted authorization to undertake preliminary steps to establish a chapter. As an initial requirement, the Grand Chapter mandated that the names of five (5) Brothers in good standing be submitted to Philadelphia. This was necessary for the Grand Chapter to conduct its investigation of this request. In the interest of expediting chapter formation, the group of twelve (12) Brothers decided to submit the names of the following Brothers who are life members: James Childs * Larry Jenkins * McKinley Hayes * Marty Miller * George Yates
