Oregon Cure Relay
On November 29, 2009 — a cold, foggy Sunday morning before the Civil
War football game took place on Thursday night, December 3 — brothers
of Kappa Omicron Chapter ran a relay between Reser Stadium and the
University of Oregon’s Autzen Stadium to raise money for the Lance
Armstrong Foundation. They raised almost $1,000.
The Oregon Cure Relay was the chapter’s main philanthropic event of
2009. The brothers ran relay-style along Highway 99W, with each of the 23
participants carrying the football and covering one mile at a time on the
41-mile run. It was Thanksgiving weekend, so not all the men of Kappa
Omicron could be there, but everyone who participated enjoyed the event.
The brothers of Kappa Omicron Chapter hope the relay will become an
annual event, and they would like to partner with other chapters, maybe
even one from the University of Oregon.

Chapter News
During the summer, our recruitment
chairman, Iain Schoenberg, and cochairman, Devin Ivey, traveled all over
Oregon and even into Washington to
meet with potential recruits. The
chapter thanks Iain and Devin for all
their hard work and dedication in
recruiting 15 new pledges for the fall
term. We also thank Tom Lien ’02, Bill
Anderson ’01, and John Martin ’85
for supporting and advising Iain and
Devin through recruitment. During the
summer, Iain and Devin hosted two
major recruitment events, a wakeboarding trip in Lake Oswego and a
rafting trip in central Oregon along the
Deschutes River. Both events were
successful, with many recruits and
brothers attending. We all know how
important recruitment is, so the
chapter is grateful for all the support
from KO graduates, and we ask you to Iain Schoenberg hands off the football to Kurt Lorenzen.
continue your support of our recruitment efforts.
In the fall term, our philanthropy chairman, Bradley Barringer, organized the Oregon Cure Relay,
an event to raise money for the Lance Armstrong Foundation. To show our support for the cause,
KO brothers ran from Reser Stadium to Autzen Stadium in Eugene. The event took about six
hours to complete, spanning a total of 45 miles. Brothers and pledges took turns running a onemile leg before handing the football off to the next runner. The chapter was pleased with how well
the event went — so much so that we want to make it an annual FIJI Philanthropy event.
This past fall, KO Chapter sent Iain Schoenberg, Adam Damiano, and Adrian Gonzalez to FIJI
Academy. The trip was a great opportunity for them to learn more about their chairman positions.
They met graduate and undergraduate FIJIs from all over the country, and brought back a lot of
good ideas that will help to further improve our chapter.
Kappa Omicron Chapter extends a huge thank-you to Alan Thayer for all his hard work and
dedication to the chapter. The chapter had been without a Purple Legionnaire for some time
before Alan stepped up to take on the role. Alan helped organize and advise chapter members to the point where we are today. Alan recently stepped down as the Purple Legionnaire,
but his time and effort will not be forgotten. — The Men of Kappa Omicron

Meet the Pledges
Justin Langley
I am a freshman at OSU from West Salem High School, where I played baseball and football,
and founded and presided over the Ping Pong Club. My initial choice was not OSU; I spent a
semester at Arizona State University but quickly realized how deep my loyalty to the Beavers
actually ran. I began talking to a friend I grew up with, and he told me how much he enjoyed
FIJI. I never really considered joining a fraternity until he convinced me, and without even
visiting or meeting any other members, I came and moved into a room on my first day in
Corvallis. I now consider myself extremely lucky to have blindly found a fit with FIJI. I soon
learned that the Fraternity values and customs fit ideally with my own, and found a lot of the
guys I get along with and can develop a brotherhood with. I plan on double-majoring in
marketing and management, and following in my aunt’s footsteps (a Delta Gamma OSU
graduate), finding a job at Proctor and Gamble.
Daniel Harrison
I am from Beaverton, where I went to Westview High School. I am also an Eagle Scout. I am
attending Oregon State University on an Army ROTC scholarship. After graduating from college
with a business degree, I hope to obtain a commission from the Army and enter the service as
a 2nd Lieutenant. I joined Fiji because the values that Fiji promotes are those that I strive for.
Jimmy McDowell
Hi, I am from Portland. I come from a family of four; I have an older brother. I went to Westview
High School and played four years of lacrosse there. I love to ski and play sports. I have always
found working on cars to be fun. I came to Oregon State University because I wanted to play
lacrosse, but decided not to play in my freshman year. I chose Fiji because of the guys in the
house, and because of the morals and attitudes of the guys in the house.
Jamie Amrhein
I was born on October 26, 1990, in Seattle, Washington. My parents, Mark and Amy, moved to
Ashland, Oregon, when I was 3 because my dad got a job there. I have lived in Ashland for 15
years and couldn’t wait to move away. I played baseball and basketball in high school, earning
all-conference honors in my senior year in basketball. I enjoy skiing with my family and just
chilling out with my friends. My favorite place in the world is New York City because of the
amount and variety of opportunities. I try to make every day an adventure by meeting new
people and trying new things. I am game to try just about anything once because there is no
way to know if I like something until I experience it.
Josh Lindekugel
I’m a freshman majoring in business. I’m from Albany, Oregon, where I went to West Albany
High School. I played basketball and football in high school, and maintained honor roll status
for all four years. I joined Fiji because I love the atmosphere and all the guys. Fiji has already
made me a better person and student. I hope to graduate with a degree in business marketing, and stay in contact with all of my pledge brothers.
Davis Jantzi
I am a junior studying Food Science and Technology with my option in Enology and Viticulture,
and a minor in Spanish. I hope to graduate in the next two years after traveling abroad. My
hobbies include SCUBA diving, rock climbing, and fishing. I joined Phi Gamma Delta because
I want to achieve the purpose-driven life that can only be found by surrounding oneself with
positive influences and mature role models.
Ryan Dale
I am from Medford, where I attended North Medford High School and participated in varsity
soccer, swimming, skiing, tennis, and the ceramics club. I didn’t really know where or
what I wanted to do after high school, so I chose to come to Oregon State because of the
variety of majors available — and I have always liked the Beavers more than the Ducks! My
majors are economics and construction engineering management. I chose to take a
double major because one just isn’t good enough anymore. I found out about Fiji through
one of my longtime friends and pledge brothers. He helped me meet the guys of the
chapter, and once I met them and realized the values they uphold, I knew this would be
the fraternity for me.

Kyle Wehage
I am a graduate of North Medford High School, where I participated in varsity swimming
and club water polo. I was captain of both teams in my senior year. Other hobbies include
fishing, skiing, and wakeboarding. I first became interested in Phi Gamma Delta while
visiting my brother (Brent Wehage ’10) at the chapter house. During one of these visits I
was offered a bid, and was happy to have the opportunity to join the Fiji brotherhood. I tried
to make every summer recruitment event, if it didn’t conflict with my job as a lifeguard for
the Medford Parks & Recreation Department. I will be lifeguarding again this summer for
my third year. It gives me great pride to be a Fiji-to-be.
Kyle Taylor
There is nothing like being the oldest man in your class. I am a senior Fiji pledge, and it
has been nothing short of a fantastic experience. Living with a large group of men has
been quite interesting, to say the least. Each member or pledge has a personal library of
amazing stories and history to offer, and I am gaining plenty of memories to add to my own
library. I joined Phi Gamma Delta to get a new feel for college life. I have transferred
schools twice, lost God knows how many credits through the process, and have gone
through so many school rivalries I have lost count. Aside from that, I have lived in a dorm, a
small house with seven others, and with my grandma. To date, the Fiji house has been
the most fun and unique residence I have had the privilege of calling home, and I am glad
to be taking a 5th year for my education.
Matt Pelham
It’s great to be a Fiji-to-be! For my entire life, I’ve called western Washington home. I’m
from a small town north of Seattle — Stanwood. I chose Oregon State because I want to be
a mechanical engineer, and OSU is one of the top 25 schools in the country for this field of
study. Once I got here, I needed to be a part of something, and I realized that joining a
fraternity could provide that connection. After looking at some of the other fraternities, I
knew Fiji was the right one because Fiji values fit right in with mine, with friendship being
the most important. The guys in the house are awesome, and they made me feel at home
right away. I believe I made outstanding choices in both OSU and Fiji. What I love to do
revolves around sports. I love playing sports, and love being a fan, especially of football,
basketball, and baseball, which is my favorite. Other than that, I enjoy hanging out and
having a good time, which fits right in with being a part of Phi Gamma Delta!
Kody Lawrence
I am from Bandon, Oregon. I enjoy the outdoors and extreme sports. I am currently
undeclared in my major. I am an Eagle Scout. I did track and cross-country every year
through high school and I was a captain of both teams my junior and senior years. I
continue to be athletically active. I enjoy a good adventure and the company of an attractive
woman.
Michael Hill
I am 18, as of August 27, 2009, and I grew up in Medford, Oregon. At North Medford High
School, I played water polo and swam competitively, beginning in my sophomore year. I
have played saxophone since 6th grade — both alto and tenor sax — and now play in the
OSU marching and pep bands. I have also played guitar since my freshman year of high
school. My major is chemical engineering, and I hope to work with new fuels or medicine
some day. I like to think I am a happy individual, always smiling and joking around. I try to
brighten the mood wherever I am. I joined Phi Gamma Delta because of the way it was
presented to me. I was anti-Greek before college, but when I talked to the recruiters, Devin
Ivey and Iain Schoenberg, I was surprised by their enthusiasm about the fraternity. When I
talked to other fraternities, the same enthusiasm was not shown. I then met the brothers
of the chapter and found that I liked the guys, and I liked the idea of Greek life in a dry
house. I live in the fraternity house, and have no plans to move.
Paul Q. Sims
Hi, all! I’m in my third year in college, recently transferred here from the east coast. I’m a
country boy from the lovely state of Vermont, where I’ve lived for the past 12 years. I chose
OSU for a lot of reasons, namely the warmer climate (winters that AREN’T -30 degrees
Fahrenheit) and the strength of the zoology program. Coming to the west coast has been
an awesome experience so far, especially regarding the friends and fellowship I’ve found
here in the Fiji house. One aspect of Phi Gamma Delta that most impresses me is the
incredible diversity I find among the various brothers/pledges and yet, at the same time,
the unity and support we all share as a brotherhood. It astounded me to feel welcome and
to have a sense of belonging right from the start, even though I didn’t know most of the
guys. In the coming years, I have two major goals: to help this chapter be the best we
can be, and to see the Brennan Cup return to Fiji. I am super excited about the growth we
all will undergo as individuals, but most of all, the growth we will share as a brotherhood.

Continued from page 3
Eric Schoenberg
I am a freshman at Oregon State studying pre-business. I was born and raised in Beaverton,
and attended Westview High School. During high school, I played soccer and lacrosse, but my
favorite memory is joining the DECA program, a business club, in my senior year. I attended
the state competition for my financial literacy promotion project and was invited to attend the
international event after placing first. I am a sports fanatic, so I am excited to play intramural
sports. I am also an Eagle Scout, so naturally I love the outdoors. I recently went on a trip, with
my brother and a friend, to visit the Grand Canyon, Zion National Park, and the Redwood
National forest. I enjoy traveling, and have started to take up SCUBA diving since I was certified
for a trip to Barbados. I am looking forward to the rest of my freshman year at Oregon State
University and have set a goal for myself to maintain a 3.0 GPA for the year. My father, my uncle
and my grandfather are all members of the Kappa Omicron Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta, as
well as two cousins who are members of the Mu Iota Chapter (U of Idaho).
Tommy Hahs
I was born and raised in Beaverton, Oregon, and grew up a Duck fan. It wasn’t until I looked
into the two universities that I realized how much better Oregon State is. I am a freshman
heading into the business program of Oregon State University; I hope to complete a major in
entrepreneurship. I am an outgoing and social person, and I love anything to do with sports. I
will play just about any sport for fun. However, my favorite sport and hobby, since I was 12, has
been snowboarding. Every winter I practically live on the mountain. During all four years of high
school, I competed on my school’s snowboard team. I also participated in recreational soccer,
lacrosse, and Boy Scouts. I attained the Eagle Scout rank last summer, before my 18th
birthday, and it is by far my proudest accomplishment. I first became interested in joining Fiji
after hearing so much about it from my friend and his older brother, who I accompanied on a
3,000-mile road trip last summer.
Successful Recruiters
As you can see, recruitment went well in summer and fall 2009. In the spring of 2009, the
chapter only had 17 live-in members. Iain Schoenberg and Devin Ivey spent all summer
recruiting 15 pledges of high quality from around the Pacific Northwest. In the fall of 2009,
Devin and Iain assembled one of the largest pledge classes the chapter has seen in a long
time. The chapter looks forward to watching the development of these fine young gentlemen,
and we are pleased to be part of their continuing success in school and in Phi Gamma Delta.
This year, Devin and Iain have passed the torch to a new, enthusiastic recruitment chairman,
Adrian Gonzalez. The chapter has the utmost faith and confidence that Adrian can accomplish
our goals and continue our successful recruitment efforts in 2010. Please contact Adrian if you
have any questions, concerns, offers, or referrals that should be brought to his attention. He
can be reached at gonzalad@onid.orst.edu.

Portland Graduate Chapter Places Second for National
Brightman Award
The Portland Graduate Chapter won second place in the 2009
national competition for the Brightman Award for graduate
chapters with fewer than 75 members. This is an improvement
over our third-place award in 2008. Plans are forming to capture
first place for 2010. Also, the Portland Graduate Chapter held a
second Portland Trail Blazers Fiji Night on February 9. Fourteen
brothers attended, and we enjoyed dinner at the Rose Garden
prior to the game. During the game, Phi Gamma Delta was
recognized on the Blazer scoreboard, and the camera panned our
Rip City Row and showed many of the Fijis in attendance on the
scoreboard. Everyone had a great time!
Many Graduate Chapter Brothers joined the fun at the all-Fiji
Smoker, held at the Lucky Labrador Brewery in Portland on
Saturday, February 13. Great deal — all the pizza a person could
eat for $10. Join us! Contact: bigallind@comcast.net.
