Gents,
Thanks to everyone who joined us last weekend for our 10-Year Charter Anniversary. In total, more than 70 alumni – from across the country, representing every grad year from 2007 to 2016 – came out to celebrate. We hope you had as amazing of a time as we did. |
Special thanks to the 28 brothers who gave back to the chapter through our “10 for 10” fundraising campaign. We’re excited to announce that we blew past our goal and have raised more than $14,000 to date. Thank you to our generous donors for making that possible. |

A special shoutout to the co-winners of our “Last Man Standing” challenge, Ben Zeidler and Jeff Wray, who called it a truce at $2,500 each. If you made a pledge during Last Man Standing, we'll be following up with details on how to fulfill it very shortly.
We’d love to add even more names to this list.

We're Just Getting Started
First and foremost, last weekend was a celebration of our chapter’s success so far, and of everyone who played a part in our first decade. But just as importantly, it marked the kickoff of even greater things to come in our second. We see the weekend as a springboard to strengthen alumni-undergrad relations going forward, with some exciting opportunities coming up this summer:
▪ Summer meetups in NY, DC, SF: For three years now, we’ve hosted an alumni-undergrad meetup in NY. We’ll continue that this summer, but we’re expanding to bring the concept to two more cities: DC and San Francisco. Stay tuned for more details on dates and locations.
▪ Conclave: From August 2-6 in Orlando, we return to where we won our first Buchanan Cup 8 years ago to try to earn our fifth consecutive, and Gold, Buc Cup. There’s a group of alumni already planning to attend, and we’d love you all to be there to witness and celebrate again. If you’re interested in attending, shoot an email to Jeff Wray.
We’ll be in touch with more details about these efforts, as well as our plans to build our AVC back up as a strong presence to support the undergrads, in the coming weeks. In the meantime, please reach out to us with any questions or if there are areas where you’re interested in getting involved. |
Thanks Again
What this chapter has achieved in its first decade – and the impact it’s had on all who have been a part of it – is truly incredible. We’re grateful to be a part of it ourselves and damn proud to call you all brothers.
Cheers to the next ten.
