UNLV C/0 CSUN Box 21 4505 Maryland Parkway Las Vegas, Nevada 89154 Dear Fellow Classmates, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. is very pleased with, the success of their Black History Month Activities. We truely appreciate your participation in making these events pleasant. We are sorry that not everyone was able to attend our activities, but hope that we will see you next year. Delta Sigma Theta recieved an abundance of support from the University,and Ccsrniunity. We have bigger and better ideas planned for next year's Miss Black UNLV Pangeant. Prior to our week of events for Black History Month, we approached you with a request of $700.00. This $700.00 was to cover some of the expenses of hosting our activities. We were goint to approach you with, another request for financial assistancer but we have changed our minds. Enough currency was collected to pay for both the expected and unexpected bills, give, rather substantial scholarships to. each pageant contestant , and still give scholorships for the Fall 86 semester UNLV students. The applications for scholorship will be made availabe in the near future. Again thanks for your support and we hope that you will attend Delta Sigma Theta's "Second Annual Miss Black UNLV Pageant"; . Sincerely Yours, Rachelle1 C.
