Midwestern Regional Director
Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated
August 25, 2011
Sorors of the Magnificent Midwestern Region::
We are ready to kick off another exciting sorority year and celebrate many milestones! Did you know...seven years after the inception of our beloved sorority; 1927 in Tulsa, Oklahoma the Midwestern Region was born. In 2012 we will mark our 85th Anniversary and plan to celebrate big at our 70th Regional Leadership Conference in Omaha, NE. Please check the Regional website for more information and exciting details.
As we begin a new fiscal year I ask each and every one of you to recharge your energy and spirit as there is work to be done. We have Sorors to reclaim from the side of the road, new chapters to charter, new members to initiate, help other people to excel, and partner with our Amicae and Youth.
Please join me in supporting the Regional Officers and State Directors as we implement state, region and national programs and initiatives.

We missed a lot of you at the 2010 Boule that was held in Dallas, TX, ; but I know that we will show up in larger numbers for the 2012 Boule that will be held in Chicago, Illinois, July 6-10, 2012. It is my continued desire that we all work closely together and are truly helpful and sisterly as we carry out the work of Zeta. As always remember to make Scholarship, Service, Sisterly Love and Finer Womanhood serve as the foundation for all that we do.
Sisterly,
Lonnette "Lonnie" Dafney
19th Midwestern Region Director
