🏎️ Start your engines, Brothers! The 47th General Convention is heading to Indianapolis from Thursday, July 30th to Sunday, August 2nd!

This is a historic milestone for Sigma Phi Delta. Grand President Santarinala has officially convened the first-ever Special Session of the General Convention. This also marks our first even-numbered year General Convention since the 7th General Convention in 1948—which was the first meeting held after the lapse following World War II.

Just as that 1948 gathering rebuilt our foundation for the mid-century, we are gathering the best minds of the Fraternity to architect the next 100 years of Sigma Phi Delta.

To ensure these working sessions are as lean and effective as possible, we are calling for exactly one delegate from every Active and Alumni Chapter to blueprint our future.

Want to be part of the discussion?
Guests are absolutely welcome! If you are passionate about the future of the Fraternity and want to participate in these critical strategic sessions, we want you in the room.

📅 Dates: Thursday, July 30th – Sunday, August 2nd
📍 Location: Indianapolis, IN
✉️ Contact/RSVP: [email protected]

Let’s gather in the Circle City, honor our heritage, and bring our vision for the future full circle. See you in Indy! 🏁
