Theta Chi: Support the National Fraternity

Brothers,

Eta Omega has over 700 initiates since we were first became a chapter back in 1982. But having all those initiates is meaningless unless each and every alumnus participates in the betterment of the fraternity as a whole. That is why I am asking each and every one of you who reads this email to go online and make a minimum pledge of $10 to the Foundation Chapter of Theta Chi Fraternity. 

As many of you may already know we are in the planning stages of a major renovation of the house.  The funding for this huge effort will be made possible through a loan from Theta Chi.  Without their assistance a loan of this size would be next to impossible to obtain.

New Alumni Fundraising Task Force

When it rains it pours. After a few months of asking the OX List for volunteers for the next fundraising effort, we got 4 volunteers in a single week. The group has agreed to work together to reach out to alumni, raise funds for this Summer’s house project (we need to replace the roof), and beyond that to put a sustainable fundraiser in place. The group consists of:

  1. Ed Stone
  2. Mark Geenen
  3. Brian D.
  4. Tyler T.

If you’d like to help out, contact the group at: alum.fundraiser@etaomega.org

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.
