DEADLINE APRIL 25th.

Our April Dallas County Aggie brAG is Olivia Potvin - a loud and proud Architecture major graduating next month! Through long nights, early mornings and countless hours of hard work and determination, she has poured her heart into reaching this milestone and DCAM couldn't be more proud of her!

Her memberships include Delta Zeta Sorority, Order of Omega, The American Institute of Architecture Students, and the Conservation & Preservation Society. Olivia received the Merit Award from Metal Building Manufacturers Association for her botanical garden project last Fall! 

Ms. Potvin has interned for SHM Architects in Dallas the past two Summers, and is looking forward to her 2026 Summer Internship for Gensler before she begins her Masters in Architecture at UTA.

When she has free time, Olivia loves golf, pickleball, painting pottery, working out, cooking, and throwing down some wings & queso while watching her Ags BTHO everyone!

It's a sea of maroon at the MSC during Parent's Weekend and we have so much to show you! If you'd like to help us at the boutique, just email Nathalie at DCAMBoutique@aggiemoms.org

To complement TAMU's Big Event, DCAM had an amazing day giving back to our community by donating, sorting, and processing over 2000 diapers, jumbo packs of wipes, baby food, toys, and clothes for Hope Supply Company benefiting at-risk children in the metroplex. Afterwards we had lunch at the iconic STROKERS ICEHOUSE! Come join us next time - it was a hoot!

It's that time of year to vote on a new DCAM Board for the 2026-2027 academic year! We are officially taking names to fill some shoes because, according to our bylaws, a few term limits are approaching and we're thrilled to expand our sisterhood with YOU!

ALL volunteers are welcome - so feel free to share any strengths or special interests you have because we will find a spot for you! A few of the openings involve party planning, technology, crafting, fundraising, promotions, and marketing - all to support each other and our Aggies. If none of these pique your interest, we'll create something that does! The best part is: all positions include a village of moms to help and new friendships to make so don't be shy, let us get to know you!

Thanks and Gig ‘em,

DCAMParliamentarian@AggieMoms.org
