Alright! As promised, here is the update from our chartering.

On Friday afternoon, we had the ritual and former Grand Hegemon, Chris Grasso served as our chief installing officer. Greg Roskopf, Joe Rugger, and Jim Dunning were also in attendance. Everything went smoothly. We initiated 13 new guys and then had the installation of Chapter officers.
It was a very awesome ceremony, especially hearing the words "I now declare this first meeting of the Epsilon Kappa Chapter closed."

We all took a break and got out stuff together to go downtown for RCB. The reception start at 7pm at the Millenium Knickerbocker Hotel. 8pm, we went into the ballroom and started the dinner. Damn it was good!

Later on, we had our awards ceremony and speeches. This was cool but nothing topped when Frater Grasso presented us with our "charter" (I say that cause it was only the certificate since we get the actual charter in NO next summer) Then, Rugger and Roskopf presented us with the horseshoe.....then came the open bar.

What a great time! We were dancing, chanting, partying, and having a great time. Then the party "ended".

Actually, we just moved it to the Palmer House since that is where we were staying. The coolest part about that is that I managed to score us the penthouse!

We partied there and then most everyone passed out.

There are so many funny/great stories from last night. It was good fun. I think most everyone is still basking in the fact that we got chartered...6 months! Oooweee.

It was also cool that some of the guys from Zeta Zeta came down to party with us.

Oh man! I think this is one of the coolest things I have experienced....just seeing all of that hard work finally take form....noone could ask for more.


My Fraters.....I LOVE THIS FRATERNITY!
