2017 was another record breaking year. We absolutely crushed our goal of $18,000. At the time of this post, our total stands at $22,720 with donations still making their way to us. Simply amazing!!
This year, due to a scheduling conflict with the start of classes, work took place a week prior to Labor Day. As such we had a few less workers than previous years, but a fair amount was still accomplished.
We started with a little light yard work-pulling weeds, mulching beds, and disposing of a stump (a project we started last year).
While the yard was being tended to, some other brothers started on (the now time honored tradition of) painting eaves.
With the yard work complete, it was time for lunch.
(18 feet of sub – before and after a bunch of college guys got to it.)
Finally, it was on to the main task of the weekend – striping and painting the porch decking.
However the biggest news of the weekend is with this year’s fundraising nearly complete, we are now in a position to begin scheduling the roof repairs. Keep an eye out for more updates about this exciting news throughout the year.
We thank you all immensely and know we could not do this without your support. Thank you to all of the donors, all of the volunteers, and all of the families who continue to put up with our shenanigans year after year.
On behalf of Terry -TZ- Moran, The Alumni E-board, and the Active Chapter we sincerely appreciate your continued support of the Organization.
Thank You,

Excellent job guys! I know a lot of work went into this on everything from the planning, fund raising emails, donations, on site work weekend, pictures, website, etc. Keep up the great work.
