Lake Louise 18th National Convention

Alpha Chi Omega held three conventions in Canada, starting with this one at Chateau Lake Louise. 330+ attendees came by The Special train from Chicago to St. Paul. 26 members celebrated the first Olympian Luncheon (honoring them for attending four conventions or more). A Mother's Club Handbook was created, and attendees saw the inauguration of the new alumnae program. A 10-day post-convention trip offered a train ride from Vancouver to Seattle, where participants would board a sailboat to Alaska, all for $348 ($5,100 today).
