On August 25, ATOs from across the country met in Indianapolis for the 2007 ATO National Awards Banquet. Ten brothers from the Theta Eta Chapter made the trip and didn't leave empty handed. Theta Eta took home the Erksine Mayo Ross Impact Award-Honorable Mention, the Good Samaritan Community Awareness Award-National Runner-Up, the Upper Alpha (BoT) Award, Recruitment Advantage-Honorable Mention, and Excellence Awards in Financial Management, Ritual, Pledge Education, and Campus Involvement and Leadership. Theta Eta also received their True Merit Bowl at the banquet. Our chapter was one of only 22 chapters to be awarded this honor. Theta Eta also had more community service hours than any other chapter in the nation. Click here to see the video from our National Headquarters of the event.

Brothers Return from the Rockies

Brothers Matt Malone and Chris Lucas (pictured right) recently returned from Buena Vista, Colorado after particating in Alpha Tau Omega's Altitude. Altitude is a small-group leadership development program that challenges participants on many levels. This five day leadership experience takes you deep in the Rocky Mountains and deeper within yourself by focusing on issues of character, integrity, and faith. The two Theta Eta members were grouped with several ATOs from across the country including members from the national staff and ATO's National Chaplain, Reverend Comforted Keen. "Altitude helped me learn a lot more about myself and gave me new life-long friendships. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience," said Brother Matt Malone.

Theta Eta Home Improvement

Recently, the ATO house underwent a major renovation. A new floor was installed throughout the hallway and kitchen area. Alumnus Tom Hand volunteered his time on Sat., July 28th, to install the flooring. Brothers Stanley Hand, Brandon Dingler, Tyler Mills, and Tyler Aldridge also helped with the process. Mrs. Hand was there and painted the trim throughout the house and on the front porch. Not only did the Hands volunteer their time, but they, along with alumnus Michael Flannery, also gave the monetary donations needed for the improvement. The brothers of the Theta Eta Chapter would like to take this opportunity and thank them for their contribution. It is greatly appreciated and will not be forgotten.
