On May 14, 2011, the Alpha Gamma Chapter hosted what was possibly our most successful Frank Norris Pig Dinner with 144 brothers and guests in attendance.  The day started with 32 golfers who teamed up in a four man scramble mixing undergraduate and graduate brothers.  This is where the brothers were able to share stories about their personal life and their experiences at GMI / Kettering.  Prizes were awarded to the person with the longest drive, Ron Leonard, closest to the pin, Howard Parsons, and low net score, Raj Nair, Howard Parsons, Daniel McConnon, and Aaron TenHuisen.  After golfing, the festivities of the night began where a fine pig was consumed along with other assortment of other food.  Raj Nair, the Keynote speaker, spoke about his times at GMI which alluded to his decision making of how to react in certain situations.  He told many stories making people laugh and reminisce about the good times we all had in the house.  Following Nair was the opening of the time capsule, where everyone in attendance was able to see the unveiling by seven Alpha Gamma Upsilon graduates.  Precious and special items were identified and remembered of the beginning of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity house at 1702 Flushing Road.  Once all of the structured events came to an end that night, brothers gathered together and caught up with our pledge brothers.  If the banquet hall would have allowed us to stay past midnight, I am certain there would be people still talking until the next morning.  Several times throughout the night, brothers could be overheard saying, “Great job! This was the best Pig Dinner I’ve ever seen.”   – it was a true team effort!  If it were not for the support of graduate brothers, A-section brothers, and B-section brothers, it would not have been so successful.  From the long weekly phone calls to the random emails throughout the day, everyone played a vital part in making this event a big hit.  Thank you Phi Gamma Delta!  Below are over 250 pictures from the event feel free to click on an individual picture and save it for your own!  If you have any pictures, or know of anyone who has more pictures that we should put up please contact Jameson Fee.
