I noticed a thread that said that Alpha Gamma Delta has a Mother's Pin? I don't recall ever learning that before. Anyone have any insight on this?

I'm also curious about this pin. I know that we've had this pin for a while, but does anyone know how we can go about getting these pins for our moms? I know that they're available for purchase through BurrPatt, but is there a special ceremony involved through the chapter? Or are we allowed to just get them on our own?

I think that you can just purchase the pin directly from BPA. I don't know if there is a ceremony done for this. Perhaps one of our more seasoned alumnae can tell us?

The Mother's Pin has been around at least since the 1930s, since it is shown in my 1931 History. I have been meaning to get one for my mom for the longest time, but I'm not sure if she would get much opportunity to wear it!
