Chapter History:

The Gamma Upsilon Chapter was installed on March 20, 1950 at Gene Goyle's

Steakhouse in Tucson by the Grand Secretary/Treasurer, Ray Kelley.

In recent history, Gamma Upsilon's "main event" is their annual spring raffle where

money is raised and donated to reputable foundations. A couple of these organizations

include Tucson Children's Hospital and the Arizona Cancer Center.

In 2005, GCD Dr. Murphy was presented the A. Richard Bliss Award. This award

is the highest honor bestowed by Kappa Psi for outstanding contributions to the

pharmacy profession through practice, involvement, and education.

The Gamma Upsilon Chapter hosted Province IX's third interim assembly in

October 2006. Brothers went all out and treated the province to a weekend second to

none. In addition to lowering the registration fee (lowest registration fee in 5-plus years),

the chapter was able to provide top of the line entertainment and top-quality meals.

The weekend closed with a bang as brothers were treated to a unrivaled dining

experience at McMahon's Prime Steakhouse.
