The Mabel Lee Walton House at 225 N. Muhlenberg
Street is the national headquarters of Sigma Sigma
Sigma Sorority, founded in 1898 at the State
Female Normal School at Farmville (now Longwood
University). The Walton family built the house
in 19l4, the year after Mabel Lee Walton became
Tri Sigma's third and ultimately longest-serving
national president. During her 34 years as leader
and almost 70 years of membership, she promoted
ideals of integrity and service.
Tri Sigma's
philanthropic efforts, including a campaign to
eradicate polio in the 1950s, have aided
hospitalized children throughout the country.
