The Brick
 
Some have heard of The Brick on previous threads.

But, this has become a Lenged among Brothers of LX Z!:)

Brother Shawn S. came from Indy for Founders Day 2003 in Feb.

He brought these Bricks for Our First Acution ever that Brother Rambo came up with. While I donated a lot of items including a Badge among manythings, The High Light were The Bricks!:D

They were Bricks with a little Plaque that just had a little statement on them.

They produced 1/2 of the $3,000. that was gained for The Chapter. This was Our First and hopefully not the last.

I was so dissapointed having bidded on all three and not winning any that Shawn told Me Tom, Damn Bubba, I will get one made up for you. Shawn and I do go back a bit for "Old Fart and Kid"!

Everytime I saw Shawn, I asked about MY BRICK!

Told Him that when I got it, I would donate money to the House Fund in his name.

I have My Brick. Shawn came back for Homecoming 2004 and gave it to me.:cool: I could not have ever so been pleased to Have My Brick. It is in a place of honor along with The LXA Alum Pyramid where I can see them both every day when I sit at My Computer.

So My Brothers, no matter how small something can seem, a Brick is what it is all about.:cool:

Tom maybe we could re-inroll you at Pitt State to take some classes in writing, literature and english composition. What you are writing makes little sense, just blurting out part of a good experience with a fundraiser/LCA brother doesnt make for great posts.

Quality, not Quantity of Posts......

While it may not be a great post, and some may not understand it,
it just goes to show, no matter how small something may seem, it is what it produces.

Three Bricks done by a Brother for an event may not seem big unless you were there to see and feel the excitment. He hit on an idea just as many members do.

I guess to me, it just shows that a House and a Fraternity can be built one brick at a time.

Initiation Bricks
 
I know of a few chapters where each brother gets a
brick on or just before inititation. Its usually a white
(concrete) brick with the name and zeta#.

During I-week, all the brother's bricks are built into a wall,
and the soon-to-be initiates see their Zeta# for the first
time....a night or two before initiation begins.

How many chapters do that? I know Gtown does, and
I took that to Vandy, tho I don't think they still do it
(someone told me one year they couldn't find white
bricks and stopped doing it, but they were thinking
of reviving it).

I still have my brick!
