Happy Founders Day 2012

Fraters of Delta Nu,

On January 10, 1899 our great fraternity was born and some 58 years ago on the campus of Northwest Missouri State University one of the finest chapters was started!  On behalf of the men of the Board of Alumni Advisors of the Delta-Nu Chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon, we want to provide all of you an update on the chapter on this day that celebrates the beginning of our great fraternity. I apologize in advance for the length of this letter, but we do have a great deal of good news to share!

Remodeling continues - Back porch enclosed into a second Frater lounge

The porch where the fire was centered has been enclosed and is being converted into a second Frater lounge with storage for new folding chairs and tables as well as a new communications center and ping pong table.  Completion date on this project is mid-February .  The new tables and chairs will enable the active chapter to hold meetings in the Chapter room as well as host social and fund raising functions like dinners and card tournaments to raise money for various philanthropic endeavors.

The Red Door is back!

The red door is back at the TKE house and has replaced the gray one we’ve had for the last 11 years!.  As the work continues, we will begin posting pictures of the construction on this web site.  Let us know your thoughts.  The photo gallery is available at http://tkedn.com/house/gallery

New Frater Lounge

A new Frater lounge is near competition.  It will contain a big screen TV with surround sound, several couches and a place for TKE plaques and other chapter history.  Completion date on this is January 3 as the 26 men move into the west half of the house to begin the 2nd semester.

Over 100 Tekes attend NW Football Fall Clasic at Arrowhead

TKE Delta Nu had another great tailgate prior to the Northwest/Pitt State game on Saturday (Oct 2nd) at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City.  Although the newly #1 ranked Bearcats lost on a last-second field goal, this beautiful fall day was still enjoyed by over 100 alumni and actives.  The festivities started three hours before game time and ended well after the game was over.

Frater looking for support for Breast Cancer fundraiser

Frater Darren Evans, 850, is currently training to participate in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure Walk in San Diego. 

The walk is 60 miles over the three days to raise money and awareness for breast cancer research.  He has committed to raise $2,300.00 for the cause and would ask that you prayerfully consider donating to this fantastic organization.  Unfortunately, most of us know of at least one of our friends or family that has had to endure breast cancer.

16th Annual Delta Nu Memorial Scramble Golf Tournament Recap

"A Year of Firsts" - This year's golf tournament was full of all the great traditions that have been created through years past.  The day was full of "back when I was in school" stories, sun tans and wind burns, reunions of lost fraters, and continual claims of "I'll see you back here next year!" But it was this year's newest traditions that helped make the 16th Annual TKE Golf Tourney one of the best.

Happy 57th Birthday Delta Nu!
