Mu State History

  A Brief History of Mu State Headquarters

1957-59:  During Mu State President Edna Parker’s biennium,  the first  recommendation  ,by  Margaret Boutelle , Mu State President from 1942-44, was made for the urgent need for a Mu State headquarters building.

 
 1961-63:   Catherine McAnulty, Mu State President, made the suggestion again for the need of a state headquarters.

 
1981-83:  During Mu State President Maxine Smith’s biennium plans continued to be formulated for a permanent state headquarters .


 
1985-87: During Mu State President Georgianna Turner’s biennium state chapter contributed $60,000 toward the purchase of a state headquarters building.

 
 1987-89: During Mu State President Patricia Palmer’s biennium property was purchased in Deland for the Mu State Headquarters, completing a state project first recommended in 1958 by Margaret Boutelle
.

 
1989-90:  During Mu State President Bernice Hensen’s biennium, Bernice supervised the restoration and decoration of Mu State Headquarters building.  It was dedicated on May 16, 1991.

 
2001-2003: During Mu State President Doris Nesbit’s biennium needed repair work was done on the Mu State Headquarters building.

 
 For eleven state bienniums (May 1991 through May of 2013) Mu State Headquarters played an important role in the life of the Society in Florida. The building was used for state officer training meetings, initiation ceremonies and Founders’ Day celebrations, local chapter meetings, and as a field trip destination for chapters around the state.  The history of each Mu State biennium was housed in the files kept in the building too.  And before there were computers, email, and websites, Mu State Headquarters was the main hub of communication between state and chapters, state and districts, and state and International Headquarters
in Texas.
