Meet your Co-President - Deidre Leonard

I am a member of the Zeta Gamma 2001 pledge class. I graduated from the University of Arkansas in 2005 with a Degree in Human Development and Family Sciences with a concentration in Child Development. This is my fourth year as a Pre-K Teacher for the Fayetteville Public Schools at Owl Creek. My husband, Jonathan Leonard, and I were married in April 2007. In November of 2008 we celebrated the birth of our first child, Jack Andrew Leonard. In August of 2009 Jon, Jack, and I bought a new home in Fayetteville and have been spending the last six months getting settled and making it “our home”. I am looking forward to all of the things to come in the upcoming year as well as getting to reconnect with and meet more Kappa Deltas!

Shamrock Shopping Event

A big Thank you to everyone who attended the Shamrock Shopping event yesterday at White House Black Market in Rogers, and a big thank you to Deidre for getting all of the refreshments together. We have not gotten the total yet of the donation to the Children’s safety center, but we did have a great turn out for the event. Thank you to those of you who introduced yourself to Deidre and I, we enjoyed meeting you and sorry if we missed anyone that came by. Deidre had Jack (15 months) and I had Max ( 1 year) so they kept us occupied as well! I still can’t believe what a gorgeous day it turned out to be. It was just a beautiful day to get out and walk through the Promenade Mall. I think I have been avoiding that place all winter! The White House Black Market staff thanked us for having our shopping event, and were so great to work with. They told everyone that checked out about our Alumnae group and our shopping event, so it was definitely great exposure for both us and the Children’s safety center.

Thank you again for everyone that came. We look forward to seeing you at the next event. We have a Happy Hour coming up at the end of March, and April we have senior induction and Race for the Cure!
