We had fourteen founders, but one, Ossian Mills, is considered the "Father of Sinfonia." In many of our documents, including our membership handbook, he is referred to as our "Revered Founder," while the other eleven are referred to as "Charter Members" of the Fraternity. Our Founder's Day ceremony, one of only two "open" ceremonies that we have, begins by saying that "[w]e are met on this, the ___ anniversary of Sinfonia's founding, to pay homage to the memory of its founder and first president, Ossian Everett Mills."

So for us, it is indeed "Founder's Day."
