You cannot really understand unless You have been in this situation, and I know some have and many are on GC today, the electricity that is generated by and event such as this.

I mentioned a few names of GC Brothers and they were very familiar to them as Jason Holt does moniter GC when He can.

lenoxx and ottar, I know that You understand what I am talking about along with LXAAlum.

Well, all for now about LX Z and will keep My Brothers here updated.
Brother Chipperfield did the keynote address at the UNC recharter - WOW - great speaker and motivator!

I can picture the perma-grin you must be sporting these days - we get to experience vicariously through you, and it's almost as if watching a play-by-play of the Phoenix Award happening in front of us!

I only hope to be as excited as you are again soon, should CSU be recolonized in the next year or so - that will be quite the big event!

Keep us informed!

S H, You can beleive that for a fact.

I emailed out a message to Our Listing and was gratified with the Number of Alums who replied to it.

A lot of excitement is in the air for LX Z!

I also got an email about a Front Page Article about us in the Pittsburg Sun.

Lot of buzz on campus and in the city!!!!

Yea for Us and LXA!

Cool

Second trip to The Pitt in a week!

Had an Alumni Advisory Board Meeting today, but other Alums showed up as usual. ELC Jason Holt held the meeting to give us some ideas and get feed back from us.

He said He and Josh Lodolo were extremely pleased with the turnout of Alums and what We have actually accomplished while they were there. First, I must give thanks to these two fine Young ELCs and Members of LXA!

After a two hour jaw session, we adjourned to the New House. While still under construction, thank goodness there was heat in the house. Chef Sparky Narrell stayed to do the BBQ cooking freezing his rear off.

We had @ 20 Alums from all over who came in and a huge surprise was in store for us.

@ 20 Actives from Drury, Springfield, Mo. and 3-4 from Kansas State came down. No small road trip for sure!

Drury will do the Ritual in April,7-8 weekend. Jason said the Brothers from Kansas State were upset as they wanted to do it too.
(Drury Colonized LX Z in 1966 and Kansas State Chartered us in 1969). Brothers from both will be down for Ritual and cannot wait. Drury invited the New Associates to Springfield for Sat. Night and Jason was taking them over. What a great chance for Our New Guys to see what an outstanding Chapter is really like.


At present, we now have 18 New Associates with more to be Associated Sunday at the meeting. That will bring us to @ 25 and not totally done yet.

The electricity is still in the air and growing. Alums who have not been around are now on the Alumi Advisory Board, more and more will become more active once again.

To be truthful, if not for the change in Leadership of LXA and thinking, We would have been closed. As I was told , this was unprecident in LXA History and every effort was being done to Rejuvinate Lambda Chi Zeta. We are maybe The First real test case, but hopefully not the last!

One funny incident that happened, was as We all know is a Cell Phone ringing in a meeting and guess whose did? Jason Holts! I asked Him is that Your phone buzzing, oh it is.

None other than Brother "Biff" Holloway was calling and He was put on speaker. Heck, I didnt even know that those pesky things could do that! Everyone yelled Hi Biff!

Well all from LX Zeta Update for now!

Looking forward to April 7-8 weekend.

Any Brothers in the area who see this are welcome, just let Me know.

Ritual will be Sat. and a Founders Day Dinner and Auction will be held.

IN ZAX,

LX Z on the rise from the ashes!

12 New Brothers were installed by Sigma Theta, Drury, almost 41 Years from Our Colonization who also did the Ritual.

We have some carry overs and some new possible who want to Associate, but this close to Installing were held off for the moment.

The House is still in the final stages of fine tuning and will be open for use this summer and especially this Fall.

I had a nice talk with Jason Holt who will be leaving and going into the private sector and He will be sorely missed.

But on another note, His Brother Jarrod Holt will be a New ELC! Congratulations Jarrod!

Brother Grand High Pi, Lynn Chipperfield Narrated the Ritual, National President of AGD came to the after BBQ which was fantastic.

Many Alums came back who I have not seen in Years or never knew.

The voltage that was running through us was awesome and I cannot really explain it. The vibrante New Brothers is huge plus for Us and the outstanding work by The ELCs and aid from IHQ, well, AWESOME!

Oh, some dumb Brother Nominated Me as President of the New LX Z Alum Association. I am be calling You for advice!

Grand High Pi Chipperfield does a wonderful job with that narration. Wish we could get him out for Cal's next show.

I can fully understand the time and effort and emotional capital that went into the efforts at Pitt. We are doing many of the same things at Berkeley right now.

Thanks Chris!

Wish I could do something for You Brothers there but am really busy with LX Z!

God, I am still tired.

Hope all is going well with You and Your Zeta!

It does help keep Me thinking Young, just wish the Old Body would cooperate!
