Alumni Weekend Update

Hey all! The registration link for Alumni Weekend will go live in early 2015. Stay tuned for that.

We are happy to announce that Dinosaur BBQ will be catering Saturday's lunch at the house. They'll be cooking on site, you don't want to miss their pulled pork and brisket, trust us!!!

Also, we've secured a block of rooms at the Hilton Garden Inn in Troy due to high demand for rooms (and we still have a few rooms left at the Albany Marriott). Check out the Alumni Weekend subpage for the group code.

Have a great Christmas!

Save the Date for Alumni Weekend 2015!

SAVE THE DATE! Alumni Weekend 2015 will be April 23 through April 26.

Next year marks the Pi Chapter's 150th anniversary, so we decided to hold a four night / three day Alumni Weekend to celebrate! Stay tuned for important details regarding preregistration, room blocks at local hotels, and everything else that you'll need to know in order to attend!

Also, if you'd like to help plan this joyous affair, please email the Alumni Weekend Committee at aw@pizetes.org. Thanks!

Telecommunications Project Progressing

The house is currently installing new Ethernet and coaxial wiring to each bedroom in an effort to modernize the telecommunications capabilities of the chapter. Pictures of the effort can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.679158298772116.1073741837.160736730614278&type=1

The far wing is almost complete. The near wing should be completed by the end of the week, and the rest of the house should be completed in time for school to begin on 1/21/14. Thank you to the laborers and the donors for making this project possible.
