On Friday August 29th, 16 Brothers from Stetson University traveled to the University of Florida in Gainesville. The Kappa Hexaton Chapter was chosen by the Grand Chapter to facilitate the Initiation Ritual for 33 new brothers of the re-colonized Delta Tetarton chapter .
This amazing experience culminated with the Chartering Banquet for the Brothers of the Delta Tetarton Chapter. The banquet was held Saturday evening at the Paramount Plaza Hotel & Conference Center. Grand President, William Neugebauer, was in attendance and commended the Brothers from Kappa Hexaton on the outstanding job they did exemplifying our ritual and setting high standards for our new brothers to emulate. Former Grand Council Member, Doug Diekow was in attendance as well. Doug Serves as the Delta Tetarton Chapter Advisor and as the Regional Advisor for the Southeastern Phi Sig Chapters. Ryan Budke, Fraternity Operations Coordinator and Josh Ordonez, Regional Leadership Coordinator from International Headquarters were also in attendance and did an outstanding job organizing the weekend.
Brooks Robinson, current Chapter President remarked, “this was a fantastic experience for the Brothers of Kappa Hexaton that traveled to Gainesville. We feel that we gave the Delta Tetarton Brothers a ritual experience bar none. For me, it is definitely one of the highlights of the year.”
“Our Brothers have always done a fantastic job exemplifying excellence when it comes to our rituals”, remarked Sean Hamilton, Ritual Advisor for Kappa Hexaton. “The Ritual Team that traveled to Gainesville was no exception. In fact, we had more brothers in attendance than we actually needed. I am so proud of the job they did and I am overwhelmed by the incredible friendships and bonds of brotherhood that were formed between our chapters.”
Current chapter Treasurer, Nicolai Israileff stated, “Our UF Brothers are Amazing. We are planning on coordinating a Ginny Springs Tubing Trip with them in the Spring.”
