Gamma Theta Chapter of Sigma Chi Chapter update

Alumni,

We recently got the house repainted with the contributions from Alumni Weekend. Again we thank everyone who came and we look forward to doing it again next fall. A large group of us made it to the Sugar Bowl to watch Tebow's final game. It was a great semester for our chapter; we initiated 27 brothers this past fall. Also our brothers continued to be active on campus with Brother Benjamin Helsby becoming the Interfraternity Council's Treasurer and our fall 2009 pledge class becoming involved in Gator Growl and the Young Leaders Conference.

This spring we will be putting on our annual philanthropy Derby Days on February 19th-20th. Our goal is to raise $35,000, which would be the highest grossing fraternity philanthropy ever at the University of Florida. All proceeds benefit the Children's Miracle Network. In doing so we need your help! To donate please visit the following site.

In hoc signo vinces,

Brett Owens

85th Anniversary Celebration




Brothers, I hope all of the alumni had as much fun as the active chapter did this past Weekend. I can honestly say that it was great planning the event and meeting all of you. We are planning on doing an alumni weekend every fall and look forward to all of you coming back again. We have some left over money from registrations and will be using that to re-paint parts of the house that really need it. I will be posting pictures of what we fix up soon. Thanks again to everyone who came, we enjoyed learning more about our chapter and sharing common experiences. A number of you wanted to help out Jeff Danzy who worked so hard for our house for over 43 years if you would like to help him out please contact our House Dad Dennis Hamm at 352-316-2111. I know some of you said you would like to help out with certain things at the house like the carpet, if so please email me at sigmachigator@gmail.com. We look forward to furthering our alumni relations. Go Gators!

In hoc,

Brett Owens
