Gamma Delta Psi’s 145th Anniversary Celebration
Brothers,
To celebrate the 145th anniversary of Gamma Delta Psi’s creation, we will be hosting events the weekend of April 12, 2024. These events require advance registration and prepayment so that we may give our vendors an accurate headcount. We hope all brothers of the various chapters in the United States and Canada plan to attend. Spouses and significant others are welcome to attend as well. These events will be held in the Chester/Colonial Heights, Virginia area.
Friday, April 12, 2024 – 6:00 – 10:00 pm
Meet & Greet
American Legion
505 Springdale Avenue

This is a drop in event for the brothers and their guests to catch up in a relaxed atmosphere. Numerous appetizers, soft drinks and water will be provided. For those that want to partake, beer will be on tap for a small additional donation to cover the cost of the kegs. This is a nice venue that has been host to numerous parties and reunions in the past. We hope many of you will be able to attend during the evening as your schedule allows.

In addition to enjoying a delicious meal, we will discuss future events, expansion/creation of new chapters in high schools.

A cash bar will be available for those that wish to partake. We are looking forward to a splendid gathering.
