2010 Homecoming Activities |
|
BG vs. Buffalo Unniversity
Saturday, October 02, 2010  Sig Ep marked another successful homecoming gathering in 2010, our 60th year
at BGSU. The morning began with the annual Alumni Board Meeting in the new
Sig Ep house now located on the west side of new fraternity row in Conklin.
The street address is 1305 E. Wooster Street. The Alumni Board Meeting
attendance included members from every decade since our founding in 1950
through today.
The meeting was followed by a ribbon cutting ceremony dedicating the opening
of the new house. We had two founding fathers, Dave Lacey and Don Adamson,
both from the class of 1953, on hand to cut the ribbon. Ron Parthemore,
Alumni Board President estimates we had over 70 members present for the
ribbon cutting ceremony and informal house tours following the ceremony.
At the ceremony, Justin Kesler, Sigma Phi Epsilon undergraduate President read
a letter from Gary Wilson, BGSU class of 1952, who was one of our original
founding fathers of Ohio Kappa. |

2009 Homecoming Activities |
BG vs. Ohio University Saturday, October 03 2009  While the Falcons may have lost to Ohio University, the Sig Eps had a great homecoming turnout. It started out with 25 alumni and 6 undergrads attending the annual Alumni Board Meeting at the fraternity house where we were treated to a serenade of old Sig Ep songs by Brother Chuck Eberly '63 after being prompted by Dave Chambliss '06 and Zac Ankrom's '10 (current chapter president) report on this summer's Conclave. Additionally Chuck shared many heart-warming stories about Carlton Schooley '63, who has served as chapter counselor since 1986. From there, the homecoming festivities moved to the Bishop Room at the Falcon Plaza (Best Western) on Wooster St. where more alumni were able to return for a visit. The Bishop Room at the Best Western Plaza was packed and two runs to replenish refreshments were needed. The Bishop Room is already reserved for 2010 in order to keep this annual gathering after the morning’s business meeting of the Alumni Board intact. |

2009 Homecoming Pink Shirt Fundraiser |
|
Last September, alumni and former undergrad President Dave Chambliss '06 hatched the idea to have a fundraiser coordinated with Homecoming, which was held in October. In less than one month, Dave and current undergrad President Zac Ankrom '10 sold over 220 shirts and raised $1,400 which was given to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. “With October designated as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, it seemed like a perfect match,” according to Chambliss. “I know we could count on Zac and the other undergrads at Sig Ep because they have become a
major force on the BGSU campus. We kicked around a few ideas and Todd Taylor '03 came up with the perfect design for the shirts. It was a big success, in every way.” Many of the pink shirts were worn by sorority members in the Homecoming parade. |
