Sigma Pi-Hosted Events

As fraternity men we all know that joining Sigma Pi is a lifelong decision and it doesn’t end after graduating college. The power of brotherhood and building relationships is key in having a successful fraternal experience during and after college. Since July 2021 Sigma Pi has been presenting alumni and active members the opportunity to connect with brothers in their area by hosting events for them to network and learn how to stay involved with Sigma Pi. Whether it's donating your time, talent, or treasure it is important for alumni to give back to the Fraternity so we are continuing to build a better organization for the future. These events have helped us raise financial support so Sigma Pi can continue to provide our members with educational programming, resources, and scholarships necessary to further our mission and enhance their undergraduate experience. Sigma Pi understands the importance alumni have on the organization and we look forward to seeing you at our next event! These events also don't take place without dedicated volunteer support. Special thanks to Colorado Province Archon Kyle Koelbel (Arizona State ’06), Iota Chapter Advisor Grant Hannon (Colorado State ’17), and Sigma Pi Educational Foundation Secretary Taylor Lapsys (California-Irvine ‘04) for their involvement.
