Founders CircleAlumni >> Capital Campaign Jan. 10, 2019 Brothers: Happy New Year to all! Our 60th anniversary Founders Day celebration will be the weekend of April 5-7. We will be announcing detailed plans for that weekend as soon as possible, but the banquet will be Saturday night, April 6, at the Cooper Alumni Center. Brother Jay Clark has also arranged for the Hilton Garden Inn to hold a number of rooms for our group — $99 per night for a standard room, $109 for a king suite. Call the hotel direct at (870) 931-7727 to make a reservation. Don‘t wait long because we plan to fill the hotel. We also have the hotel ballroom rented for a reception Friday evening, which will include a cash bar and free “war stories” from our glory days. There will be a golf tournament either Friday afternoon or Saturday morning, depending on interest and course availability. Saturday afternoon will be the annual meeting of our house corporation, and we will probably have an omega service Sunday morning. A link to the 2019 alumni dues and contributions form can be found below this message. Please download and print it, then send it to me at the address shown, along with your check. Your contribution can qualify you for the 2019 Founders Circle — yes, it‘s a continuing commitment to support the chapter, but you have a choice every year, rather than making a longterm commitment. Founders Circle membership covers alumni dues, a contribution to the Reserve Fund (for house maintenance) and at the Green and Gold levels, a payment to reduce the mortgage on the house. Alumni dues are used to cover the cost of alumni activities, such as our Homecoming tent and Founders Day meeting room rentals. The Founders Circle campaign, along with the chapter‘s continuing to meet its financial obligations completely and on time, has allowed us to reduce the mortgage to $79,475. We are on track to have a mortgage burning in October 2021, if not sooner. I‘m also asking on the form for you to indicate your interest in coming to Founders Day and, if so, what activities you‘d like us to offer. Later, we‘ll provide a signup form with details and prices, etc. Finally, I am copying below the final listing for the 2018 Founders Circle campaign and other alumni support. The Founders Circle list will be engraved on a plate to be placed in the house. Fifty-three brothers qualified for the Founders Circle, and 20 others paid dues and-or made additional contributions. The Circle raised $19,010 last year, compared to $21,846 in its first year, 2017. That support helped us complete a number of needed projects for the house and to reduce the mortgage principal significantly.
