This past weekend, the Memorial Chapter of the Alpha Delta Phi initiated four new members into our brotherhood. Over the past six weeks, these four have learned a lot about the history of the fraternity, the conduct of its brothers and about themselves. This is a time of great joy and enthusiasm as we look to the future of these four men in our society. We have  time after time been impressed by their courage, dedication and solidarity, we are overjoyed to think of how they will take the fraternity to great new heights.

From the active and alumni brothers of the Memorial Chapter, congratulations and xaipe to Christian Cunningham, Taylor Dotsikas, Nick Lanza and Scott Simon: the Pledge Class of Winter 2012!

Visiting other chapters of the fraternity has always been very important for brothers of the Memorial chapter. The weekend of March 3rd through the 5th, 18 brothers and one pledge brother hit the road westward to Toronto. The trip was certainly a memorable one, the source of stories that will be told long after the brothers who attended will have graduated. 

On February 10th, the Alpha Delt castle came alive with music, lights and our brothers from the Chicago chapter. We couldn’t bear the thought of them driving all the way to Montreal and not having the time of their lives, so a great party was had. Hopefully the 10 hour drive is something they’ll stomach again in the near future.

What is reading break without a brotherhood event at one of our senior brother’s cottage up north?

Early this week, 15 brothers drove to the town of Gore, QC, for a night of snowball fights, hockey and relaxing after a stressing previous few weeks of school. The following day, for the benefit of a brother from another chapter who had no other requests from his trip to Montreal, they ate a significant proportion of their weight at one of Quebec’s famous cabanes à sucre.

All in all, a very successful brotherhood event!

Our brothers from the British Columbia chapter demonstrate how to be true gentlemen by giving ladies at the UBC Vancouver campus something special on Valentine’s day. In the middle of the night of February 14, 2012, 13 brothers from their chapter went around campus from residence to residence and showed their appreciation for any and every girl. They put together the following video to share with all of us:

They have recently been featured on CTV and Global News BC.

From all of us at the Memorial chapter, you guys are outstanding, ADP BC!
Way to show the whole world what it means to be a member of Alpha Delta Phi.

On Friday January 20th, the brothers of the Memorial Chapter hosted the winter 2012 rush party. With an illuminating “White-Out” theme,  the house was filled with around 300 people who enjoyed the beats from our guest Dj until 3 am.

The updated theme has just been uploaded, much of the website is still a work in progress.
