Call For Directions

  April 26-27, 2008   This event is planned to celebrate the ideals of this fraternity that we are founded on, but also to do so in a cost effective way.  In substitute for a banquet, we are camping but will still reflect  on ideals .  Therefore camping is a low cost event and has little to no costs associated with it.   Daniel Martinez ASU #43, d87mexican@yahoo.com, 480-240-0582.
                 
  This event is a camping retreat for the brothers to strengthen the bonds of brotherhood and to remember the ideals that Theta Xi was founded upon.  We are going to be doing outdoor activities, such as hiking and other outdoor sports.  But the point of these activities is to enjoy the bonds of brotherhood and to reaffirm our devotion to the ideals in which our founding fathers wanted.
