I'll give you the weblink if interested.

I'm very aware of Epsilon Tau Pi and had an email discussion with one of their members. Alpha Phi Omega never limited itself to only those who had earned eagle scout (you get some people who are very touchy about the term "former eagle scout", with "once an eagle, always an eagle). In fact at least three chapters in the early years of the fraternity were chastised by the National Fraternity for limiting themselves to only Eagle Scouts and early years of the Fraternity magazine contain reminders of that.
Because of that, I don't think of them picking up where we left off.
Having said that, I hope that the APO chapter at Dayton and ETPi work together on service to scouting.
