Dear Fraternity Brothers, Families and Friends,

We have completed plans for Phi Kappa Theta Fifty (50)+ years Reunion on Friday Oct., 26th, Saturday, 27th and Sunday (leaving), 28th 2018.

It is with great anticipation that we look forward to renewing our close fraternal bonds at Arizona State College or Northern Arizona University, whichever has the most meaning for you. The close fraternal bonds, the opportunity to be a part of small campus college life, the period of becoming a young man, while pursuing our educational goals, was a very magical time in our lives for all of our brothers, significant other, and friends. Much time has passed, but the relationships and memories have continued to bring gladness in our lives. For some there has been marriage, children, grandchildren, careers, good times and some not so good times. However, wonderful experiences of being a Phi Kappa Theta brother and the lasting relationship formed will never be forgotten. This will again be our opportunity to look back at those wonderful years in our lives with great fondness with our Brothers that made this a special time in our lives possible.

Our desire is to bring our Brothers together as well as their significant other, and share some of these great memories, stories and experiences of fraternity life in the past, while sharing our plans for the future. Your attendance and participation in the 2018 reunion will make this reunion a very special and unforgettable time in all of our lives.

In the interest of sharing the experience of Phi Kappa Theta Fraternity life with a new generation of young college men, we have asked Father Lowry, Chaplain of the Newman Center and his guest to join our 50+ Reunion celebration and determine the feasibility and interest of recolonizing the Alpha Omicron Chapter of Phi Kappa Theta at NAU.

Logistical information including lodging, conference room, breakfast, dinner, buffet and football tickets (20 and 40 yard line seats) are detailed within attachment “A”. A donation of $80.00 per person is recommended, which defers the cost of a buffet, dinner and incidentals. Pls. provide your reimbursement by 9/30/2018 to Larry Barman, 647 Alta Way, Laguna Beach, California, 92651. The excitement is building for the 2018 Phi Kappa Theta reunion, and a fabulous time for all who are able to attend.
