We are sorry for the inconvenience regarding the previous post, Founder's is on April 13, 2012. We are sorry for the confusion that this may have caused. The venue is still the Silver Legacy and please disregard the previous post about Founder's Day. 

Heads up! Founder's Day will be Friday, April 13th at the Silver Legacy. Come meet the newest members of Delta Iota and catch up with old friends. More details to come.

Over this weekend, I added a new custom theme to our blog.  If you would like me to add your photos to the slider at the top (digital composite pictures or any ato pictures), please send them to sweyrick@gmail.com.  

Sorry about the broken recent post.  It has been fixed. 

Dear Delta Iota Alumni,

Hello, my name is Jacob Flynn and I am the new Delta Iota Colony President. I just wanted to write and let you know a little bit more about myself, and the current state of the colony. I was born and raised in Freeport, Illinois, and moved to Reno in 2004. I attended Damonte Ranch High School for seventh and eighth grade, then went to Bishop Manogue Catholic High School for high school. I played freshman, junior varsity, and varsity football. I also played lacrosse for Manogue and was on a traveling team called ‘Reno Envy’. Along with sports, I was in Boy Scouts and received the rank of Eagle Scout through Troop 15. My senior year, 2010, I graduated with honors and was a part of the National Honor Society. My freshman year of college I mainly focused on my grades and maintained a 3.5 grade point average. I also played lacrosse for the club team at the University.

Reminder that our homecoming tailgater is this Saturday starting at 11:00AM. Cost is $20 per person/family and we'll be at spot 1A located in red in the upper left corner of this map: http://www.renoato.org/assets/content/pdf/tailgate.pdf . Please RSVP if you have not already.

We currently sit at 60 new members who will be going through their colonization ceremony on Friday. Details are below and all alumni are invited.

Unfortunately, I've received some disturbing news that some younger alumni have been confrontational to our new recruits. This is entirely unacceptable. I would encourage all alumni to support the colony members and refrain from any hazing whatsoever - we do not want to disrupt this great momentum that we've built towards getting the house back.

Also, if you didn't get the email, here's another message from Wynn Smiley created about a week ago: http://www.ato.org/ATOVideoUpdate/10-05-11NevadaReno.aspx

See you this weekend!

Our 50+ new recruits will be going through their Colonization Ceremony this Friday, October 14th at the Joe Crowley Student Union theatre from 6:00PM - 7:30PM. All alumni and guests are invited.

Also, as a reminder, Homecoming is this Saturday and our tailgater starts at 11:00 - Please RSVP if you have not already.

As of today, we have signed 47 guys!
