As Co-Chairs we would like to express our sincerest appreciation to all of you for your
Greetings Soror Lundy and the Sorors of CAAC:
time, dedication, and commitment to this Cotillion season. Our theme this year – A Beau and a
Bloom… Leaping Beyond Amazing – truly resonated with your personalities.
During the past several months, you participated in a variety of programs and activities
designed to encourage you to accomplish your dreams and aspirations, strengthen your characters,
and enhance your sense of community awareness. Through it all, you have built lasting
relationships and are now ready to tackle the world. It was our pleasure to get to know you and

It is a distinct honor to extend a sincere congratulations and warm wishes to the members and friends of
the Covington Area Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Sorority, Inc. Thank you for your exemplary
service to our community through various projects, outreach events, including your chapter’s signature
events, annual Cotillion Ball.
The adaptation of cotillions by the African American community dates to the early 1940s. In keeping with
cotillion traditions, while serving as a rite of passage, our youths from various social classes were
introduced to society via presentation and dance after undergoing extensive teachings of good behavior,
dining etiquette, proper dress, self-confidence, and leadership skills. Today, the Covington Area
Alumnae Chapter, will carry out the tradition of introducing premier young ladies and gentlemen to our
society.
The 6th Annual Cotillion, “A Beau & A Bloom… Leaping Beyond Amazing” aligns with Delta’s
commitment to promoting growth and positive change within our communities. This event is both
rewarding and life-changing to all the participants, especially to those who have the opportunity to
advance in the areas of scholarship and service. Additionally, these young people will understand the
value of treating others with honor and respect while building valuable relationships, which will create
successful futures and service to others.
I thank each of you for your untiring efforts, dedication, positive impact on the lives of the participating
youths, community, and friends. This event, along with others, would make our Founders proud as
Covington Area Alumnae Chapter continues to afford countless opportunities to our youth and the
surrounding communities.
Yours in Delta,

In 2005, three visionary members of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Incorporated saw the potential
for a new chapter to focus exclusively on the service of those counties on the eastern perimeter
of Metropolitan Atlanta. Stephanie Moore, Sarah Lundy and Jenell Clark began the journey that
would eventually culminate in the chartering of The Covington Area Alumnae Chapter. These Sorors,
with the help of several others, began and continued the discussion for several years bringing an
awareness to the demographic changes and population growth of this area.
In February 2012 Southern Regional Director Cheryl Turner recognized the growing need for
the establishment of a new chapter to focus exclusively on servicing the eastern Metropolitan Atlanta
counties of Newton, Walton and Barrow. A steering committee, chaired by Lisa McWilliams, was
established to make this long awaited goal a reality.
Steering committee members included Terri Belle, Stacy Brundage, Kenya Burroughs,
LaQuanda Carpenter, Jenell Clark, Wanda Dunham, Cynthia Durden, Willie Mae Durden, Emma
Forte, Kathleen Henderson, Beatrice Jackson, Charlene Jones, Monique Jones, Terrie Lockhart,
Celeste M. Jordan, Sarah Lundy, Boncille Mattox, Stacey Miller, Melissa Teemer-Mims, Stephanie
Moore, Deena Sams, Derrica Stevenson, Charlayne Turner, Carol Westbrook and Isha Western.
For the next two years the steering committee worked closely with North Georgia State Coordinator
Patsy Pattman to satisfy all established standards necessary to create a new chapter. This
included an extensive evaluation of the service area which resulted in the development of several
proposed programs to be implemented. This process also resulted in the reclamation of over 30
inactive Deltas.
On April 12, 2014, the Covington Area Alumnae Chapter was established as the 1034th
Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. with 75 charter members. The chartering ceremony
took place at the Newton College and Career Academy in Covington, Georgia and was presided over
by Southern Regional Director Cheryl Turner and National Scholarship and Standards Committee
member Sandra Horton. The members of Covington Area Alumnae Chapter are extremely grateful
to Regional Director Cheryl Turner for her instrumental role in helping us to fulfill our ten year
vision. We are also thankful for all of those sorority members throughout the years who helped and
encouraged us along the way. The knowledge gained from our journey will further enhance the service,
sisterhood and scholarship we bring to our community and the world.

Rites of Passage
Ceremonies of social transformation include all the life-cycle ceremonies, since
these involve social transitions for the subjects of the ritual and also for other
persons. The Cotillion Ball is a social transformation for all the young ladies
and gentlemen signifying them being trained and polished to step into their
next stage in life. The young ladies were presented with Tiara Crowns and
Roses, and the young men were presented with Top Hats and Canes.
The Tiara represents Grace, Beauty and Excellence! Since the beginning of
time, women of power have worn it to signify their authority to others, but
also their class distinction to others. However, class is not something you
always wear, it is how you carry yourself…with pride, head held high, walking
straight and direct with purpose at all times… Royalty! So whether you are
wearing jeans, a sweatshirt and pearls (Yes, you can wear pearls with a
sweatshirt!)…or rocking a formal gown to a Ball, may you always feel like a
Queen!
Covingtion Area Alumnae Chapter
Presents Your
2019 - 2020 Cotillion Participants
A Single Red Rose symbolizes our undying love for our Debutante ladies.
However, it also conveys respect, and the creative spirit of love and courage.
We charge our Debutantes to always have respect for themselves, each other,
and the world around them. The red rose has long been the symbol of unconditional
love, which is why it is most befitting for our Debutante ladies.
The Top Hat symbolizes that of a crown and royalty of a King. It also represents
class with a touch of a gentleman. Young men should carry themselves
as Kings, walk with class and always be a gentleman. Although they only
wear the hat on special occasions, they should conduct themselves as if it is
always there.
The Cane symbolizes a shepherd’s staff. Each Beau is challenged to lead those
that need guidance and to be leaders of the flock/community. In addition, the
cane represents wisdom and authority which combine to make great young
men that are charged to represent the community no matter where they are
or what they are doing.

Blooming and blossoming

And I’m now equipped to face it,
With poise, passion and power.

Promise Yourself by Christian D. Larson
To be so strong that nothing
can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness, and prosperity
to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel
that there is something in them
To look at the sunny side of everything
and make your optimism come true.
To think only the best, to work only for the best,
and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others
as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past
and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times
and give every living creature you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself
that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear,
and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world,
not in loud words but great deeds.
To live in faith that the whole world is on your side
so long as you are true to the best that is in you.

Love is patient, love
is kind, it does not
envy, it does not
boast, it is not
proud, it does not
dishonor others, it
is not self-seeking,
it is not easily
angered, it keeps
no record of
wrongs. Love does
not delight in evil
but rejoices with the
truth. It always
protects, always
trusts, always hopes,
always perseveres.
You are our love,
Mom, Dad, the
Sisters and Joe

OUR DEBUTANTE
The beginning is the end and the end is the beginning.
Nykirra Norman, your journey, to this point, has been
victorious. The birth of a daughter into the world is beautiful.
The first time as a father and mother seeing such beauty,
excellence, and perfection that our higher power bestowed
upon young adults. Every sound, movement, and all the
energy you displayed as a baby, as a gift from above, was
amazing. Looking into the eyes of a blessed child, we fell
deeper in Love and opening our eyes to the true
understanding of Love. You Inspired us both to strive in
order to provide and Love you as we learned to love
ourselves. You were powerful then without being able to
speak. As time went by watching you grow transitioning,
being flexible, always Loving us regardless of our shortcomings as parents, leaders, and nurturers. We
told you to always keep your head up regardless of your outcome, look people in the eye, and tell the truth
and keep it moving. To stand on what you know. You know God Love you, You know everything will
work in your favor, “Blessed”. You have displayed workmanship, how to transition from a baby to a
perfect young woman. Yes your perfect to us not just because were parents, because you did this: You
walked the plank of life, You believed in us, You worked and went the extra mile, you prayed late nights,
You overcome heartaches and pain, You endured temptations that
entrap our youth, You kept us happy, encouraging us; your parents;
adults; to continue to strive and fight no matter how hard things get.
Our Love for you cannot be contained nor explained. We can tell you
we Love you . We can show you we Love you. The end of your
journey we will be there as in the beginning. We will always support,
cherish, and Love you in the end as in the beginning no matter where
your journey in life takes you. Thank you for your grace and Love!
Sincerely,
The Entire Norman Family

Don’t Quit
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt.
And you never can tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit
It’s when things seem worst
That you must not quit
