Hopefully, everyone has had a moment to review the upcoming events recently sent out. Most urgently, I need to know whether you are going to the White Sox game by June 1.
Thank you to everyone who has made an effort to help us achieve our goal of replacing the current climate system in the Fraternity House with a modern new system. This update is desperately needed for everyone connected to the Fraternity.
To anyone still waiting to contribute, please step up and help our drive reach the finish line.
At this point, we just need 200 brothers to donate $110 each to reach our ultimate goal of $35,000.
A number of brothers have already donated more than $110 to reflect this, and if just 87 brothers donate $250, we will reach our goal. This is completely achievable and will change so many things for current and future members.
Don’t just gloss over this moment. Step in to make achieving all that we can in this effort possible.
Our Annual weekend to Work on the Chapter House and grounds is July 17 – 19, we can use not only your financial support but also your physical efforts to keep the property looking sharp. Recently work weekends have only had a few Alumni attend and we need way more accomplished than what a few Alumni can accomplish.
