Thanks to the many of you that attended our annual Founders Day/Golden Legion event at Peachtree Golf Club. We had a great turnout highlighted by members of the 1973 pledge class that were honored for 50 years of membership. The Golden Legion ceremony was conducted by the fraternity CEO, Sean Wagner with the assistance of our actives and John McGoogan #1485. Sean also filled us in on the great things going on nationally with Phi Delta Theta. We will get a date soon for next year’s event so you can put it on your calendar.
On the weekend of November 12-13, the Chapter held its Fall parents’ weekend in Athens. On Saturday we held a brunch at the Terry Business School where the parents were able to see the Six Ninety veranda that we dedicated last year. As part of the donor agreement, they allow us access to this space once a year and our initial use turned out perfectly. We had a great turnout and another wonderful meal provided by our alums at Epting Events.
On Wednesday, November 16, we held our annual Founders Day and Golden Legion ceremony at Peachtree Golf Club. We were joined by the President of the General Council, Moe Stephens who gave an update about his experience as the head volunteer of the fraternity which entails a ten-year commitment. In addition to conducting the Golden Legion ceremony, Moe presented the Oxford Trophy which the chapter won this past summer as the best overall chapter in the country.

It was a couple of great events and thanks to John McGoogan #1485 who helps organize and promote the Golden Legion ceremony each year.
The Chapter Advisory Board (CAB) and chapter hosted our annual alumni luncheon this past Saturday. We had a great turnout, and more importantly, saw alumni that hadn’t attended before. The luncheon is set for the Saturday before Labor Day weekend every year. Thanks for all that came as well as to Lee and Daniel Epting of Epting Events who once again catered the event. They did a great job again this year.
Our next alumni event will be our annual Founders Day/Golden Legion event on Wednesday, November 16 at Peachtree Golf Club from 6:00-8:00 p.m. We will be recognizing our actives for winning the Oxford Trophy for the outstanding large chapter. The trophy will be presented by the President of the General Council, Moe Stephens.
We will provide additional information as the event draws closer. Thanks for your support.
Go Dawgs!!
