On Saturday, April 18, 2009 the Alumni Committee of Alabama Alpha in conjunction with the Birmingham Alumni Association is hosting an Alumni BBQ from 11:30 am - 2:30 pm in the fraternity courtyard. Hotdogs, hamburgers, chicken fingers, fries, drink, and a dessert will be served at a cost of $5 per plate.

Following the game the undergraduate chapter is hosting the Outback Crawfish Boil from approximately 4:30 pm – 6:30 pm. The cost is $10.00 per person, at the door, and will include 3-5 lbs of crawfish, red beans and rice, bread and a dink. All alumni are encouraged to attend and come by the house to meet the undergraduate chapter.

Founders’ Day 2009

This year will mark the 157th birthday of our beloved Fraternity. As is the case each year, groups around the country will be coming together to celebrate Founders’ Day. This year, brothers will come together under the theme of "1+1=71,000—Growing, One Brother at a Time."

As we all know, Brothers Letterman and Moore founded our Fraternity on the principle of “The Great Joy of Serving Others.” Well, thanks to the ever-changing landscape of Greek Life around the country, that ideal can be applied internally more and more. Volunteering to help our own brothers has become the model of success for our modern organization. In addition to the great work we can do in our communities, we can further the lives of our own members.

So this coming Founders’ Day we want to increase our attendance. If you have attended a Founders’ Day before, attend the upcoming one, as well; but make sure you bring another brother, too.

Remember—‘Bring One Brother’—this mentality will increase participation and hopefully reengage somebody in Phi Kappa Psi. The details of this year’s Founders’ Day events, hosted by the Birmingham chapter of the Alabama Alpha Alumni Association, are listed below:
