The Vice President’s Message Spring is here!

It is with great pride that I welcome the ten new initiates of the Spring 22 Mu Lambda Iine to the HOUSE OF ALPHA! March saw us bring in these assets successfully into our ranks and over the last few intake cycles, Brother Lucas has managed a process to usher extremely noble men to join the ranks of our Mighty chapter. These men are hard workers, tenacious spirits and a true force of brothers who are geared and ready to help the causes of our mission. In the essence of creating Mu Lambda traditions, the chapter’s first event since covid celebrated on the 1st of April was one built to welcome these new brothers to the networks we are building in Washington DC. This “Happy Hour” event that was birthed from an idea I had in the midst of our 2022 IMDP and I am happy to witness that Brother Bruce and the social committee put in diligently work to host at our house. This event was reminiscent of years past. A true reflection of the power of our chapter. The laughter, the pictures, the guests, the food and drinks was a pleasure to see produced. Last month was extremely active in the world of Alpha & Mu Lambda. The MAAC celebrated their 30th Anniversary in Dover Delaware with remarks from our General President and a celebration fit for kings. It was well attended by the brothers of Mu Lambda including our neophytes. At this event, we celebrated that Beta Chapter continues to lead the district academically and also have won the chapter of the year. As our chapter continues to guide these younger brothers toward a future of excellence, I want to encourage our chapter to lead in all aspects of our Alpha. We need to continue to lead in the MAAC, showcase our leadership in the Eastern Region, and mark our leadership in the work places and beyond. As we look into the future I would like to continue to encourage our brothers to step up to the plate of leadership here at Mu Lambda. Representing our chapter in all facets of our operation. This is an integral secondary function of our services. The excitement of intake cannot overshadow the importance of our duties. We have to maintain our chapter, our house, our programs and the communities we serve. Our activities are dependent on YOU. Lets us continue the work of Alpha in the spirit and power of Mu Lambda. Happy April brothers, Happy Spring. Brother Mikael LaRoche, Vice-President Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. Mu Lambda Chapter
