75th Anniversary Celebration

We held a very special 75th anniversary celebration in a private room at Drury Lane.  We were delighted to have so many past and present Chicago West sisters join us as well as sisters from other alumnae chapters celebrating with us.  We were honored to host Gayle Fitzpatrick, AOII Executive Board Member and newly elected AOII International President, as our guest speaker.  


So many sisters celebrated with us!
