About to head to dinner with the Bruhs
The 92 Anniversary of our Founding is a great milestone to reach. I congratulate all the Brothers for their love and support for the Fraternity.
I have thought though that I want to share. In a short 8 years, we will be at the 100th Anniversary of the Fraternity. My questions for each of us are: 1. What will I be doing to purpetuate the life and success of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity? 2. Will I have been an active and financial member of the Fraternity leading up to that Anniversary? 3. What responsible role will I be playing in leading Omega or influencing her policies and processes so that we are financially solvent, brotherly to all Omega men, and respectful to our wives, sweethearts, daughter, neices, and mothers? |
HAPPY 92nd BRUHS!!!!
