Alaska, International Order of the Rainbow for Girls

Group photos! Our 2004 pride of Grandies (Line in the back, Pages in the front), Grand Choir, and our Out of State visitors!

This day in 1977 was the last use of the guillotine... which has very little to do with our birthday girl, PGO Mrs. Phillips, it just happens to be a "fun" fact. 📍⚔️

Here's a peek at our 2004 Circle of Life decorations filling the Central Middle School gym in Anchorage. All the African animals, grub in the cafe, even our own Pride Rock!

Our organization is founded on love, service, and charity. The real secret of life that leads to happiness is charity; not just monetary generosity, but to be generous with friendship, with laughter, with time, with our thoughts and words, with the care we give those around us.

What does charity mean to you? What charitable work is important to you, or which charities? Do you have a favorite charity fundraiser?

The International Day of Charity was established to celebrate Mother Teresa's work to alleviate suffering and encourage volunteerism.

It's our biggest birth day of the year!

Happy Birthday to PSD Mrs. Freeman, PGFaith Mrs. Ryder, and PGLove Mrs. Martin! 💛🕊❤️

On this day in 1969, the first US ATM opened for business. May that fact bring luck, and birthday girl PGWAA Ms. Alex finds money on the ground today! 💵

As we wind down our visit to 1999, we're celebrating sisterhood with GWA Liesl's dedication.

On this day in 1917, suffragettes picketed President Wilson's White House. Since then, the White House has had Americans expressing their opinions and hopes just outside its gates every single day. 🪧🪧
Just a little fun fact for PGWAA Mrs. Stahl's birthday! (Also a trendsetter)

How CUTE is 1999 GWA Liesl's quilt?! A Disney fan, then a long-time Disney employee!

Here's hoping PGFidelity Ms. Rose has a dog-gone good birthday this National Dog Day! 🐶

Singing this Saturday with our '99 Grand Choir! Remember when?! Which movers and shakers do you spot (besides the epic pegasus)?

President Truman signed the UN Charter this day in 1945, creating the United Nations. 🌏 PGH & GEB Treasurer Ms. Swift also entered the world this day in history! Happy Birthday!

But of course decorations just serve as the background for all the antics, like this skit, we get up to at Grand Assembly!

Starting off this 1999 anniversary tour with a peep at our session decor in Palmer, 25 years later!
