AKΨ - Gamma Omega

Print

First off, Gamma Omega is proud to announce that we have inducted 11 new brothers this quarter. Congratulations to the new brothers! We are very proud of all their hard work and have enjoyed seeing how much every single new brother has grown throughout the pledging process.

Next, Gamma Omega wants to wish the sweetest of thanks to our previous Executive Board for doing an amazing job during the last year. Your leadership was really appreciated, and we inducted over 38 new brothers in the time that you were in office. Talk about making our chapter stronger!  

A Quarter of Recognition and Bonding:

Spring Quarter is particularly exciting because our chapter has a new Executive Board; there is Spring Officer Training Camp (SOTC) down in Eugene, Oregon, at the Kappa Chapter; we host several alumni happy hours; and we have our Annual Spring Banquet, at which we announce the recipients of our chapter awards: the Alpha, the Kappa, and the Psi awards!

2012-2013 Executive Board:

  • President: Arielle C. Newcomb
  • VP of Performance: Kuan-Lin (Ken) Chen
  • VP of Membership: Nudhanai Lunchaprasith
  • VP of Operations: Colin Hirai
  • VP of Alumni Relations: Amy E. Fallon
  • Secretary: Yeajin (Jane) Park
  • Treasurer: Samantha Tran
  • Master of Rituals: Rose Breeskin

SOTC, Friday, April 20 - Sunday, April 22 at the University of Oregon

This event is particularly fun, because Gamma Omega has the chance to meet and connect with the leadership teams and dedicated brothers of other chapters in the Northwest Region. This year, to hold with tradition in the past, the Gamma Omega chapter will also enjoy a tour of the Nike campus (Thank you, Brother Beekman, for arranging this) on our way down to Eugene. The 24+ Gamma Omega brothers who are going all very excited - especially to reveal our favorite new song "Blue & Yellow" at the NW Chapter Roll Call on Friday night!

Annual Spring Banquet, Sunday, May 20 at Dolce's Bistro in Downtown Seattle

We are very excited for our annual Spring Banquet event, organized by Brother Fallon. We would like to invite our alumni to this event to connect with the collegiate members. Moreover, we are excitedly anticipating the announcement of the recipients for the Alpha, Kappa, and Psi awards, which will be presented that evening. After Spring Banquet, we will also enjoy our Annual Post-Banquet Bonfire at Golden Gardens in Ballard, where we will share stories from our time in Alpha Kappa Psi. We hope to see many our alumni and collegiate brothers at this event!

Look forward to announcements from all of our committees and E-Board about further details surrounding these events, and events not mentioned here. Don't forget to help out with Fundraising or Marketing, in our efforts to get sponsorships off the ground, and to finish filming our music video!! If you have ideas about what Gamma Omega can do this quarter to add to the great things we have planned already, please don't hesitate to contact anyone in a leadership position, who could pass your idea on and make it happen!!
