New Alumni House Manager Needed in Chico

We’re losing a good man – and an Alumni Board member – up in Chico. Brother Erick Sondeno, who along with Jim Hull, oversaw the entire Cottage re-build in 2007, is leaving Chico. Erick is the Alumni House Manager, but it’ll be a tough for him to be on-site at 630 w. 5th St. very often after he’s moved to his new home in San Francisco.

So, we’re in need of a new House Manager. If you have any nominations, contact us…or send your nomination to the OX List.

Alumni Board Update

Q1, 2008 RECAP:

  • April’s Active/Alumni work weekend at the House was a success, and on a shoestring budget. All funds were donated by alumni. Pics: http://www.flickr.com/photos/reither/tags/20080330/
  • EtaOmega.org website went down because Esposto was the administrator, and he moved to the Bay Area. Obviously it’s back up now…brand new design.
  • Our finances/books needed attention – they were all still paper-based until this year. Everything has been migrated to QuickBooks now.
  • We found a new CPA in Stockton to file our taxes (charges $500, but says he can eliminate some fees that we currently owe)
  • New Chapter President (Adam Shea) and his exec are working to get 16 leases signed for 2008/2009.

CURRENT:

  • Got volunteers (Ed Stone, Mark Geenen, Brian D., and Tyler T.) to help out with Alumni Fundraising.
  • Priority summer project is to fix the house roof and gutters to prevent further leaking.
    • Brian Flournoy is heading this and donating all materials.
    • We still need to raise money to pay for the labor…which is estimated at $25,000 – please donate to the House Fund if you can.
