I wanted to remind everyone that the year is not finished. We still have our incredibly important Summer Ordeal occurring June 6-8 @ The Silver Palm Methodist Church in Florida City. We need as many brothers there to support their Chapter in the Best All Around Competition as well as the 2008-2009 Lodge Officer Elections.

If you are interested in running for Lodge Office, you must be under the age of 21 by June of 2009 and must have a signed letter of recommendation by your Chapter Advisor.

The registration form will be posted online ASAP and is available through your Chapter Chief.

Thank you for making this year so successful.
