Greetings Brothers,
This letter is to acknowledge the miss-communication that is taking place with the Beta Chi Chapter. It has been brought to my attention that the chapter was told the Spring 2014 intake fee included the registration fee for the Spring 2014 Regional Conference. This in fact is NOT true! Please see attached documents pertaining to the:
Spring 2014 intake from Regional Polaris Christopher Greggs &
Spring 2014 Regional Conference Welcome Message from Regional Secretary/ Conference Co-Chair Travis Ballenger.
No where in the attached documents does it state that the intake fee was included the Regional Conference.
Prior to the Beta Chi Chapter being announced the host chapter for the Regional Conference; I had multiple conversations with the chapter Polaris, Kimbro. It was made clear that the brothers in the chapter were going to be needed to help prepare for the conference. To date, no current member of the Beta Chi Chapter has sat on a committee conference call for the Spring 2014 Regional Conference. In addition, Brother Kimbro has not responded to any emails sent out in regards to the Conference. Of recent, Regional Secretary Travis Ballenger sent an email scheduling a meeting with the Beta Chi and the Regional Polaris, Christopher Greggs. This email asked for confirmation of receipt and Brother Kimbro and has yet to reply.
In conclusion, due to the aforementioned deliberate disregard for the Regional
Conference planning committee, the chapter is still expected to at least have their Chapter Polaris and the two new members registered before the deadline. As of current the only registered brother of the Beta Chi Chapter is Brother Dwayne Montgomery.
As always if there any questions, comments and or concerns please feel free to contact me.
Yours in the Fold,
