Epsilon, Xi, Kappa at the Epsilon house

GC 2010 was a rip-roaring success on so many levels, it’s difficult to elaborate on them all. Xis were very well represented with a large alumni and active contingent. Total figures for the banquet on Saturday night were 270 (!) people in attendance, with about 250 St As registered for the entire weekend. The sessions were long, but much work was done and a robust debate was had. I don’t believe the temperature ever got above freezing (or if it did, it didn’t by much), but the host chapter, Epsilon, greeted everyone warmly and with much enthusiasm.

One of the best arrangements for a banquet I have ever seen: it was on the top floor of the hotel where many people were already staying. Many ribald tales, tons of singing and dancing, a fabulous band and extra classy people.

Did you miss it? Look for pictures coming soon to the National website. Are you on Facebook? Comment here and I can add you to the Facebook St A group.

Xi will be hosting the GC in 2012. Epsilon had a huge contingent of folks who hadn’t been back in years. I hope we can get the word out and make a great family reunion happen.

GC 2010, hosted this year by the Epsilon Chapter at Trinity College in Hartford, CT, promises to be a grand affair. Are you coming? Register and pay online through the National website, then hop on over to the GC2010.org site for updated schedule, hotel and event information.
