The 2015-2016 recruitment season was one of the most successful in recent memory. Although the already shortened recruitment schedule was altered by winter storm Jonas, the chapter adapted successfully. Given only one open house, the brothers were happy to deliver 105 first round invitations. Notable events this year included the classic Dominion Gun Range and […]

Worthy Master Kevin Vincenti (’14) When I met with my Executive Team for the first time, I could feel the electricity in the air…and it hasn’t left yet, not even for a second.

That may apply to those guys at Virginia Tech, but I’m more of an “imbibing” and “philandering” kind of guy — much classier… I’m one of the men on the UVA […]
Matt Terry (’02) We completed two high-priority projects – the foyer floor and the water lines – last summer, and that will allow us to tackle several smaller, but key, projects this summer. As many of you have no doubt noticed, the original bricks forming the front walkway have eroded and become uneven. Furthermore, the […]
