GUIDE RIGHT/KAPPA LEAGUE Purpose: To use the fraternity’s international Guide Right Program as a model and foundation for the development, implementation and administration of a highly visible and productive Guide Right program on the Virginia Peninsula. This program is designed to help young men grow and develop their leadership talents. The Hampton-Newport News Alumni Chapter expanded the program to include educational, tutorial, mentoring, career counseling, partnerships, special interest programs, and athletic teams. 15 to 25 young men participating in this program are grouped as:
Committee Functions: This committee’s responsibility is twofold: 1) The full implementation of the Kappa League element of the International Guide Right Program, and 2) The provision of funding, administration and oversight for the Kappa Cardinals Athletic Association. The latter provides for the use of sports as a means to have continuous contact with hundreds of youths on the Peninsula. As a result, youths between the ages of 6 and 15 are afforded access to academic guidance and mentorship by Chapter members throughout each fraternity year.
