Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia Province One

Hey guys…anyone interested in going to the Leadership Institute next week? One of our CPRs Max Heitman is planning on going, BUT his travel partner had something come up and now is unavailable to attend. They have both prepaid for their registration to the Institute but they were planning on splitting the cost of the travel by driving. So, if you want a cheap way of going to this amazing event…please contact Max asap to discuss the details.

I am proud to announce that in addition to the seven chapters and one alumni association in Province One, a colony was recently approved.  New Jersey City University has been approved as a Phase I Colony.  They will work to complete Phase I as the Omicron Theta Colony, since there was a chapter previously chartered at NJCU. I have already named Omicron Alpha at William Paterson University as their big brother chapter.  I am confident that the colony members, Bernie Mathews (Colony Advisor), and the big brother chapter will work to their best ability to reactivate OT.

Congratulations to the Sigma Alpha Chapter at University of Massachusetts Amherst on their installation last night.  19 men crossed as Sinfonians in a wonderful ceremony.  The Zeta Omega Chapter of at University of Hartford served as the mentor chapter providing Sigma Alpha with a tremendous start as a chapter.  In attendance were National Collegiate Representative Benjamin Strack, two UMass faculty, Bbrothers George N. Parks and Fred Omega Pye, brother from Xi Mu (University of Delaware), Omicron Mu (Clarion University), alumni and collegiates in and around Province One.  Best of luck to Sigma Alpha!

This year due to several factors the workshop will be condensed to one day.  The official events are all contained on Saturday, January 23, 2010 on the campus of Montclair State University.  Please arrive between 9am and 10am to enjoy breakfast of juice, coffee, and donuts.  The days events will begin promptly at 10am.  Lunch will be provided with a possibility of dinner as well.  (Note: The banquet previously discussed will not happen, but there will be dinner, possibly at your expense.)  At the conclusion of dinner everyone will return to MSU for a faculty initiation of a member of the MSU music faculty, PMs and colony members are excused from this portion.

As in previous years all attendees must pay a registration fee of $5 each.  This along with your province dues helps to pay for the food and other supplies for the workshop.  Which reminds me… PAY YOUR PROVINCE DUES!!!!  You will receive more information from your CPR very soon which will include parking information and exact building/rooms.

In summation…. All brothers and colony members must make every concerted effort to attend our annual province workshop.  This is the most important event of the year and includes the election of your province officers for the 2010-2011 academic year.

Province One Workshop=Saturday, January 23rd 9am-10pm, Montclair State University, $5 each
