Phoenix Rising Part I

A Note from AA GM Kevin Jones

Brothers

It is official now that the Lambda Zeta Chapter at VCU Regained its Charter on January 15, 2022. The Lambda Zeta Alumni Association participated in the initiation of the Chapter this past weekend. The day was a great success. Our Alumni team, put together by brother Taylor and brother Hines were one of four ritual teams invited by headquarters, including undergrad groups from Randolph Macon, Old Dominion, and Christopher Newport.

I personally want to thank our ritual team and the 20 alumni brothers who participated in the initiation ceremonies that were held this past Saturday. These brothers took the time to meet weekly and rehearsed for this historic event. Job well done!

It was led by Kevin Taylor and John Hines, included the following brothers: Alan Richardson, Bill Johnson, Bob Milburn, Brian Eggert, Chris Moorhead, Craig Corrieri, Don Doyle, Greg Lloyd, Jim VanZee, Joey McCullough, Michael Barrett, Mike Woods, Monirom Southakakoumar, Roger Richardson, Scott Hall, Shane Jamison, Tim Thompson, and Vic Beresford.

After a long nine-hour day that included the Explanatory Lecture, we all gathered again at The Common House for a dinner banquet. The team from Headquarters included Mic Wilson, several staff members, the Ritualist, and the Worthy Grand Scribe. The evening was capped off with receiving the original Charter and the new Charter.
