Alumni Open House for Spring Game

clip_image002Mark your calendars for Saturday, April 19: We are arranging an Open House/Alumni Association Gathering before and after the VT football Spring Game. We will be showing off the completed attic and second floor renovations. The contractor and architect will be present along with the House Committee members to give tours and answer questions.

Please take the time to visit for some refreshments, to view the renovation progress and see brothers. Families are welcome. We had a large turnout for the Alumni Meeting last fall and hope to repeat it!

Do You Get Our E-mail Newsletter?

DKE Email NewsletterWe currently have a lot of missing brothers in our e-mail list. One of our 2008 goals is to increase e-mail communications to reduce expensive print mailings. This will allow us to refocus funds on priorities like events and house renovations.

We've sent two e-mail newsletters thus far and will soon send a third. If you're not getting these e-mails, please update your records so we have the right e-mail address!

Help us find lost brothers: please tell all brothers you keep in touch with about the newsletter, and ask them to visit this website to update their records using the link at the top.

And don't forget, any time your contact information changes, please let us know using the Update Records link.

Alumni Meeting Before Miami Game

We will be holding an Open House and very brief Alumni Association meeting a couple hours before the Miami football game on November 17. We'd like to invite you to come see all the great work we've put into the house. Board members will be on hand along with our contractor and architect to show off the latest renovation efforts, make a few announcements and take questions. If you're in town we hope you'll join us for a bite and a drink or two to reconnect with the fraternity.

Open House: 12 noon - whenever
Meeting: 1:00 - 1:30 pm

Capital campaign update - $80,000 pledged!

Charlie Lloyd, our Campaign Chairman, just announced that so far we've received over $80,000 in pledges and donations to the 2007-08 Capital Campaign. These have come from about 60 alumni. This is a great start and we are very grateful to all who have recommitted themselves to their fraternity. Click here to see a list of donors. We still have a long way to go - as you'll see in the news items below, progress continues but we're going to have to take a breather until fundraising catches up. Our goal is $200,000, with which we will be able to finish this aggressive and ambitious restoration project.

If you haven't yet contributed, please visit our Fundraising section to learn more about making a tax-deductible donation. We hope to involve all brothers in this project so all can take credit for the turnaround.
