Greetings ZK Alumni Brothers,
This is the Hustler, ZK 353, Bill Davies hoping this message finds you all in good health and spirits. Much like our beloved Fresno State Bulldogs are kicking off a new season this week, the Zeta Kappa alumni chapter is kicking off a new era with the launch of this new website and exciting plans for our fraternity.
The Legion of Honor marches on into the 21st century embracing new technology, along with the time tested values that continue to serve us well in our day to day lives. The alumni chapter is reaching out to you through this new website to encourage your participation, because it was your energy that made ZK such a great experience in the first place.
The alumni chapter convenes once a month for a dinner meeting. Alumni business discussed, ideas shared, social events suggested, and chapter activities communicated.
The current alumni chapter officers are:
- EC Ron Manfredi ZK 306
- LC Bill Davies ZK 353
- Treasurer Mike Golden ZK 300
- Recorder Steve Kelly ZK 363
- Scholarship Chairman Chip Putnam ZK 279
- Alumni Advisor Jonathan Martin ZK 761
We invite you to join our next meeting, September 22 at 6:00 PM at Marie Callender’s Restaurant on the corner of Cedar and Shaw. We welcome your input and conversation.
We hope to plan alumni events that appeal to the broad range of over 800 initiates. Save the date for an alumni tailgate on October 10th for the homecoming football game Utah State. We’re also planning a reunion for the ZK 65th Anniversary in May of next year. More on both of these coming soon.
Just before the collegiate chapter left for summer break, the alumni and newly elected collegiate officers met at Chris Olson’s ZK545 home for a meeting to share ideas about new officers’ responsibilities. These men are taking their obligations seriously and have been working diligently since returning after the summer. They certainly need mentoring, coaching and guidance, much like we all did when we were their age.
The collegiate chapter is hosting Preference Dinner for the new candidates on October 2nd, which alumni are invited to attend. More information to follow.
What else? Take a little time to explore the new website and try out the features. In particular, be sure to ‘Send Us Your News,’ which will help will help us publish fresh alumni news and updates.
The alumni chapter would like to thank brothers Chris Healy ZK 701 and Lindsay Barto ZK 744, and their digital marketing agency Round Two Creative Group, for help putting this website together.
We hope to make your alumni experience valuable. Please contact us to share any suggestions you may have, or simply to reconnect with the fraternity. And cheers to a new season for those Battlin’ Bulldogs, and for Zeta Kappa alumni of Sigma Nu.
Fraternally,
“The Hustler”
Bill Davies ZK 353
