Convention to Offer Golf Tournament and 5K Run/Walk Options

Grand Chapter Registration is now online!

With hopes of drawing an even larger crowd to convention this year, Regent Don Densborn (Beta Eta - Indiana) has called for an
unprecedented number of extra activities to be planned in conjunction with the 62nd Grand Chapter. Two of the most notable additions include a Sigma Nu Golf Tournament and a 5K Run/Walk to benefit Sigma Nu's Helping Hand Initiative. Although these events are open for both alumni and undergraduate participation, each will actually occur as pre-convention events on Saturday, July 15, 2006.

Think you might be interested in either event? Read on for more information on how to participate!

Sigma Nu Golf Tournament

The Sigma Nu golf tournament will be held at Brickyard Crossing, a truly unique championship-caliber public golf course located on the grounds of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS). This Pete Dye-designed course features four holes within the infield of the IMS oval track and is ranked the 47th best course in the country by Golf Digest. Brickyard Crossing is conveniently located just ten minutes from the heart of downtown Indianapolis and is a course you'll be talking about for years to come!

Sigma Nu 5K Run/Walk

A pre-convention charity event to benefit Sigma Nu's Helping Hand Initiative. Open to the greater Indianapolis community, as well as convention attendees and their families, this approximately 5K or 3.2 mile course follows the banks of the Canal in downtown Indianapolis as it winds its way through White River State Park. Proceeds from this event will be donated to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, a Sigma Nu Helping Hand Partner.

St. Jude is one of the world's premier centers for research and treatment of catastrophic diseases in children, primarily pediatric cancers. It treats children from around the world without regard to race, religion, creed, or ability to pay. St. Jude also enjoys a worldwide reputation as a teaching facility and freely shares its scientific discoveries with doctors and scientists everywhere.
