Linked In

We now have a New York Delta group on LinkedIn (www.LinkedIn.com). The group name is Sigma Phi Epsilon: New York Delta. For those of you already on LinkedIn, you can simply request to be joined and we will add you after we verify you are a brother.

This also has a section where you can advertise jobs wanted or needed to just those in our group.

Alumni Work Weekend

The annual alumni work party will be on August 29th and 30th.

The focus will be on the bathroom floors. The tiles are in good shape but regrouting is needed. The overall focus is to improve the appearance of the house.

The expected task list includes:

- Regrout floor tiles
- Replace broken bathroom fans and install new fan
- Replace broken light fixtures and wiring
- Repair broken windows and other exterior holes
- Other general maintenance

The actives will assist in prep work. Alumni are also asked to bring tools such as dremels (to remove grout) and shop vacs.

We are seeking approximately 10 - 20 alumni volunteers to donate their time and skills. For more information or to sign up please contact either Michael Krack '09 (michael.r.krack@gmail.com) or Dave Tomkins '92 (dt@sigepnyd.com). Please let them know if you have any experience for any of the above projects and/or can bring tools that would help.
