The brothers of the Zeta Sigma chapter have finally brought the trophy back home. After taking the lead on the first day of events the brothers made sure to stay on top. The brothers hard work and teamwork paid off taking points in all but two events. The entire chapter was supporting our athletes out on fields, courts, and pool all week boasting the loudest cheering section at every event. Brother James Helmberger pitched a perfect game in softball helping us win the event and clinch Greek Week. Congrats James!

On Friday March 18th, members of Zeta Sigma Chapter had the privilege of initiating the new Delta Delta chapter of Florida Southern College. It brought pride to our letters to initiate another group of honorable men into our beliefs and ethical codes. We are grateful that we were presented with such an honor in continuing to foster the growth of our beloved fraternity.

The downstairs bathroom renovation is now complete. Thanks to all of the alumni donations House Corp was able to have the entire bathroom gutted, the mold issues handled, all of the fixtures replaced, and the bathroom tiled from floor to ceiling for easy maintenance. A special thank you goes out to Kevin Menard, the newest member of house corp, who headed up this project.
