®I|e datttpatgn for Clamma ^rlta l/A MAY 1986 UPDATE DINNER ROAST fhe 128th Norris Pig Dinner was held February 21st at the Charlottesville Hilton under the superb direction of Tim Martorella. The Omicrons were honored this year by guest speaker Pat Standing, former mayor of Virginia Beach and distinguished Fiji. Some of the other highlights included the an nual slide show and presentation of the Fiji awards as well as some "unofficial" awards. Over two hundred guests were welcomed by the undergraduates in cluding parents and alumni. After gathering for cocktails in the lobby, everyone was treated to a feast of steamship round and succu lent shrimp. Immediately following former Mayor Standing gave the even ing address discussing the pros and cons of public service to an apprec iative audience. Omicron's new president, Bill Kenney('87), followed the main speech with a surprisingly coherent one of his own. He then presented this year's Omicron awards to the following; Alumni Contribution: Guy Tripp & Bob Krout Outstanding Undergraduate: Walter Preston, III Intramural Athletes: Greg McFaden & Walter Preston Eddie Ebert Pledge Award: Mike Dow Tank of the Year: Bob Murphy(for falling out of a skyrack) Guy Tripp and Bob Krout posing with their well earned Alximni Conribution Award The slide show this year was arranged and performed by Mike Gillette, Fiji Recording Secretary and producer of next year's "Girls of UVa. calendar." Highlights in cluded intermural action shots, Fiji Island, and Spring Break pic tures with special censored shots of the first annual "Viking Feast." Bob Krout of the fundraising committee recognized recent donors and emphasized the need for both alumni and undergraduate persis tence in the fundraising effort. His enthusiasm and work has spear headed the campaign that will hope fully enable the House to repurchase the property in the coming years. The Norris Pig Dinner reached a climax later that night with a reception back at the House where the brothers could show off the Bruno Kenney then recognized some of the lesser known achievers in the Fiji domain with the follow ing awards: Fiji Escort: John Payne & Greg Mcfaden Fiji Wife: Mrs. Janet Kenney renovation to a surprised and pleased group of parents and alumni. The evening was rated a total suc cess and a special thanks goes out to all those who took time, expense, and effort to attend. We hope to see an even bigger turnout next year.

While this is still shy of our initial goals($40,000 by 12-31-85 and $15,000/year pledges), I am encouraged by the show of interest and support by our Fiji Alumni and parents. During the balance of 1986 my goals as fundraising chairman will be to continue soliciting contributions to meet our 1986 ex penses and secure more annual pledges for the remainder of the Limited Parnership period. Reminders for those who have already pledged will be sent in June. In order to make your contribution tax deductible, make all checks payable to the University of Vir ginia Alumni Association. In the corner of your check note that the contribution is designated for the Phi Gamma Delta Building Fund. Now that the house renovation is 90% complete and the excite ment has died down, i t will be important for all of us to continue making some form of contribution(money, furniture, etc.) so we can cover our debt by 1992 and keep the fraternity financially sound. This will not only perpetuate a strong physical house but a quality group of brothers as well. If you have any questions or ideas con cerning the campaign, please write or call me.

Rick Swift('74) Campaign Chairman BUILDING UPDATE Major construction on the House is done now with only four or five perimeter projects still on the books. As funds allow, we plan on completeing these items over the next few years. Waterproofing in the basement under the patio is first on the agenda and should be finished by September. The undergraduate brothers have done a good job of maintaining the House since the renovation and should be com mended for t h e i r e f f o r t s . 128TH REUNION DATE SET November 8th, 1986 will be the date for our 128th Omicron Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta Reunion. Tim Martorella, House Treasurer, is al ready organizing this historic tribute and will be mailing out invi tations in September. Mark your calendar now to attend this festive occasion. \r\n-4MISSING BROTHERS LIST The following list contains names of brothers for whom we have no current address.
