Fraternity organizes camp for Homekoming week

Members of Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity kicked off their Homecoming 2000 week yesterday by giving back to the Lawrence community.
The traditionally African-American fraternity held its first Kappa Alpha Psi Achievement Boys & Girls Basketball Camp for children in the Lawrence community.
J. R. Roland, fraternity member and camp coordinator, said the camp would become part of the annual Kappa week because it provided Lawrence children with a venue for achievement.
"It's a way to give more time back as students," said Roland, Grand View, Mo., senior. "It's important that the kids know that people are out there and willing to give their time to them. I hope that every kid leaves feeling better about themselves."
Members of Black Student Union also are volunteering at the camp, which also will be held today and tomorrow at the East Lawrence Recreation Center, 1245 E. 15th St.
Al Harris, a volunteer for the organization, said he hoped the camp would build stronger ties between the University of Kansas and the Lawrence communities.
"Hopefully, parents and other members of the community will see our efforts in giving back to the community," said Harris, Kansas City, Mo., senior.
Roland said approximately 40 grade-school children had registered to attend the camp, which runs from 5 to 6:30 p.m., but he said he wasn't sure how many actually would attend. He said that more participants were welcome and that they could get more information about the camp by calling the recreation center at 832-7950.
The camp was the first event of the week, which will end Saturday with a non-greek step show at Swarthout Auditorium in Murphy Hall at 7 p.m. and a Homecoming party in the Burge Union at 10 p.m.
Kappa Alpha Psi Homecoming events run during homecoming week at the University because it gives students more entertainment options. Roland said.
"It's a time to give students another venue to have fun during homecoming week." Roland said.
