It was terrific to get together\u00a0 with alumni from many different classes plus the current chapter of 22 fine young men. It was great , and the 35 alumni who were able to return enjoyed themselves\u00a0 thoroughly. Actually , the dinner totalled over 70, including guests , partners and undergraduates.<\/p>\n<p>It is difficult to plan a function like this due to people\u2019s\u00a0 calendars, distance from Delaware, costs ,etc. But it seems logical to think\u00a0 you would enjoy seeing brothers(friends) whom you probably would not see if this type of opportunity were not available. We are eager to plan toward the year 2003 when Theta Chapter is 150 year old. We\u00a0 pledge to you better long \u2013range date and activity planning\u00a0 for all future attempts at such a function. W e hope to see many more of you on that occasion !<\/p>\n<p>One last thought for all of you. This chapter is in good hands and still building and\u00a0 growing.\u00a0 To\u00a0 operate\u00a0 financially , they need 35-40 men. We have a great group of young men. They need alumni in body and money. The Greek system encompasses about 45 percent of the male students , but the university funnels only \u00a0the room and board funds to the House Corporation to fund the food and operations of the chapter. The yearly requests for financial support to continue the alumni activities of the House Corporation \u2013 which includes communications with alumni through our newsletter and other mailings-is the solicitation made through the <i>Theta Data<\/i>. During the 1995-96 giving year , 118 alumni contributed a total of$5,330 to our program. Those are included generous and appreciated contributions. And yet there is always room for improvement. The\u00a0 total number of those contributing is only 15 percent of our total number(807) of living alumni. That means there is a large pool of Theta alumni who did not get around to writing out that check during the past giving year. Please take the time and make the effort to give something\u00a0 back to your fraternity. Any help will be appreciated\u00a0 and grate fully received.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/thetachapterbtp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/1996\/12\/1996-Theta-Chapter-Fallfest-Reunion.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-10257\" alt=\"1996 Theta Chapter Fallfest  Reunion\" src=\"http:\/\/thetachapterbtp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/1996\/12\/1996-Theta-Chapter-Fallfest-Reunion-150x130.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"130\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/thetachapterbtp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/1996\/12\/1996-Theta-Chapter-Fallfest-Reunion_1.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-10258\" alt=\"1996 Theta Chapter Fallfest  Reunion_1\" src=\"http:\/\/thetachapterbtp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/1996\/12\/1996-Theta-Chapter-Fallfest-Reunion_1-150x132.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"132\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/thetachapterbtp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/1996\/12\/1996-Theta-Chapter-Fallfest-Reunion_2.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-2\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-10259\" alt=\"1996 Theta Chapter Fallfest  Reunion_2\" src=\"http:\/\/thetachapterbtp.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/1996\/12\/1996-Theta-Chapter-Fallfest-Reunion_2-150x132.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"132\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Richards DeVos\u201954,Fallfest Reunion Chairman We had great reunions of brothers and guests at OWU at the October 18-20,1996, all \u2013 class reunion.
