EPSILON OMICRON ASSOCIATION – University of Oregon Phi Gamma Delta Fraternity June 2011 Greetings Brothers! It’s been a while since the last Webfoot Fiji, but the EO Trustees are still around to report some news. First, the bad news is that we have no active chapter or current colonization efforts at the Eugene campus. However, there is good news: 1. Our Eugene house is still standing at 791 E.15th (and Alder) in reasonably good condition. It is leased (triple net) to a responsible organization that is subleasing to students and student organizations. 2. The EO Association has money in the bank (in June $29,817) and receives $2,689 monthly before minor expenses from the lease. 3. All obligations have been paid, including the mortgage to the National Fraternity which has granted us a written full release of all obligations previously owed. 4. Executive Director Bill Martin (Mississippi State 1975) of our National Fraternity has registered a serious future interest in re-colonizing Fiji at UO. Several national fraternities have recently successfully returned to campus. Martin has requested comment from the trustees and interested alumni. If you wish to comment, contact Tom Lekas at 7225 SW Hunt Club Lane, Portland, OR, 97223, phone 503-244-0478, e-mail tjlekas@msn.com or e-mail John Gram at jorsgram@yahoo.com. 5. Finally, accompanying these comments on the back page is advance notice of a Portland EO Norris Pig Dinner at the Stock Pot on Tuesday October 11, 2011. Save the date! PERGE!
