Chairman Message: 

Hello brothers!

I hope this letter finds you well and sheltered after that wild winter storm. I'll keep this one Short and Sweet, We've had some great events so far this year, so let's keep it rolling into March.  Here's to Green Beer and flushing toilets! 

One DFW,

Mike Dominguez



February Wrap Up:

Thanks to everyone that came out to our Mixology Happy Hour last month.
S
pecial thanks to our TooHypeEats drivers, Jose Lara and Jesus Ipina who helped deliver kits throughout the DFW!

We had up to 23 participants jump on our Zoom Happy Hour throughout the night. Attendees exhibited the poise and artistic flair rivaled only by the most seasoned of Uptown Bartenders.

The ingredients and directions for all our cocktails seen below have been posted in our Facebook Group.

Membership Update:

Anyone else having Déjà vu?!?

Congratulations to Chapter of the Month, DELTA Chapter!

We had 153% amazing increase in membership in February. As much as it pains me to compliment an Aggie, the Delta Bros have shown they mean business this year, as they rally their brothers to be part of the One DFW!

That being said, Delta now makes up 18% (-8%) of our total membership, with the top 5 chapters only needing 4 or less new recruits in order to snag that #1 spot for next month.

So, if you are enjoying anything we are doing this year, share the love with any brothers that you know in the area!

Don't see your chapter listed in the graph above?

Let's change that this month!


Be sure to call/text your pledge brothers and let them know by renewing their DFWAA membership this month, they can snag one of our 2021 DFWAA membership polos!


^^^You Read that Right ^^^

Due to the winter storm, we have decided to allow until Saturday, March 20th for our sign up incentives!

SERVICE/Social Fraternity:

In Lieu of a Regional Spotlight for February, we wanted to reach out to all our Brothers that are missing the Community Service aspect of ODPhi. 

Our Service Chairman, Steven Olson, has made it his goal to seek community service opportunities that are right for our members, and that help reconnect us with the undergraduate chapters in the area. Check out these two events below:

  • UTA Community Service Event:
    What: Can Food Drive
    When: WedMarch 24th All Day
    Site: On UTA campus
    Contact: UTA Service Chairman: Cisco fgc.rodeo2016@gmail.com 
    We will also post a link in our Facebook Group as soon as it is avail.

         Additional Info: NTFB offers volunteer opportunities weekday and weekends. In order to do a group sign up, we need to sign up individually on the same date. This is why volunteer registration is important.

If you have an idea for a service event that would be a right fit for the DFWAA, please contact Steven at the email above.
