Dear Brothers and Virginia Friends of Kappa Alpha Order:
Kappa Alpha Order, in conjunction with the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (VDMV), has made available for Virginia supporters of the Order the opportunity to pre-purchase specialty license plates honoring our beloved fraternity.
We need 350 pre-purchasers of the plates for VDMV to go forward with production. Once we receive 350 pre-paid applications from pre-purchasers, you will automatically receive your new plates in the mail. If we do not receive the required number to complete the project, your payment will be refunded directly to you.
To pre-purchase, click-on the cross-link to download and complete the VSA 10 (specialized license plate request) form and return the completed, signed form with your payment to:
Attn.: KAO VA License Plate Initiative
Kappa Alpha Order
P.O. Box 1865
Lexington, VA 24450
You will need Adobe Reader on your computer to open the VSA 10 form, please download it to your computer by going to this website: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html
Your payment should be made payable to “Kappa Alpha Order”. Your entire payment will be forwarded to the DMV along with your completed specialized license plate request form when 350 pre-purchase requests have been received.
When completing the form, make sure you:
1) Check the license plate category “Special Interest” and write “New Kappa Alpha Order Plate” in the space provided.
2) If you would like special lettering on your plate, check the “Personalized Plates” square and write in your four potential lettering choices in the spaces provided. As the “Kappa Alpha Order” plate includes KA’s crest (considered a logo), you will only be able to select 6 letters.
3) Ensure all listed owners of the automobile, for which you are purchasing the plates, are included on the form and have signed the form. Any requests being processed without all the applicable owners’ signatures will be rejected by DMV.
4) Ensure you have checked your insurance coverage option correctly. Again, any requests being processed without an insurance declaration will be rejected by DMV.
5) Do not complete credit card payment information. DMV’s process requires we submit all our pre-purchase requests with one check. The DMV does not have the time to go through our stack of applications and individually run/authorize credit card payment information.
6) Ensure you enclose your check or money order made payable to “Kappa Alpha Order”:
a. Your check or money order should be for $10.00 if you want a set of plates with lettering/numbering assigned by DMV.
OR
b. Your check or money order should be for $20.00 if you want a set of plates with specialized lettering for which you’ve completed the “Personalized Plates” section of the form.
If we’re unable to achieve 350 pre-paid applications in a reasonable period of time, all payments will be returned to those who have sent in money for the Kappa Alpha Order license plates.
During the period leading up to issuance of the Kappa Alpha Order Plates, if your current license plates or registration come up for renewal you should pay any required renewal fee and go forward with the normal renewal process as you would if you were not purchasing specialized plates.
If you have any questions related to the Kappa Alpha Order VA License Plate Initiative, please feel free to write to the address listed above or e-mail Jesse Lyons, Director of Chapter Development, at jlyons@ka-order.org.
Thank you for your participation in this important project for Kappa Alpha Order!
