Top 5 Reason you should stop by the Beta-Tau of Kappa Sigma Founder's Day Event this Sunday -

1. It is in Overland Park and not in Baldwin City - It is a FREE event

2. After being snowbound last weekend, it is an opportunity to get out and see brothers, friends and tell old stories - And it is a FREE event

3. Opportunity to reconnect with Brothers in a casual setting at ChickenNPickle - Also it is a FREE event

4. It is a nice way to get your wife, spouse, plus one, partner out for a relaxed afternoon - Of course it is a FREE event

5. It would be a nice way to support our "Year of Brotherhood" and meet some of the Active Chapter who are carrying on the tradition of Beta-Tau now - Finally it is FREE event to attend

Of course, adult beverages or food will be on your dime....

ChickenNPickle has graciously donated the RoofTop location to the Beta-Tau Educational Trust for the afternoon from 4:00-8:00 pm

Come on out and have a good time!!!!!

Although former Sabetha High School teacher Phil Figgs isn’t making “great strides” as in taking big steps, his physical and mental progress following a debilitating stroke in early 2013 is significantly better than many people expected. His physical strides are small, hard-earned steps with the help of a one-handed walker, but after 18 months of recovery, rehabilitation and therapy, Phil is able to read okay; use his left hand to play the piano, write, feed himself and other achievements; speak coherently and smoothly; voice his thoughts; and show many other signs of progress.
