National Service Organization Brings Together 1,800 Volunteers and Raises $7k for Make-A-Wish Foundation

By Devika Rao, Atlanta Journal-Constitution

“We have a saying here at [Alpha Phi Omega],”said Carla Moran, external relations director of the 85-year old service fraternity. “We like to leave places better than we found them and by having our national convention in Atlanta, we hope to do just that.”

On Dec. 30, APO brought out the volunteers to take on the Pinewood Derby, a national derby race that lets a coach and a Cub Scout design, carve, paint, weigh, refine, and race the car. The race brought together more than 30 troops from the Atlanta Area Council’s Scoutreach Program.

Dear Subscriber

The 41st Biennial National Convention in Atlanta was an amazing success with the Cardinal Principles alive and well throughout the four-day event. The Fraternity welcomed a new Board of Directors, handed the Convention flame over to the bid team from Anaheim, California and ended it all with the largest circle of brotherhood to sing the Fraternity's Toast Song.

Thank you to all of the brothers who were able to join us for the 2010 National Convention. We hope to see all of you again (and more of you, of course!) at the 42nd Biennial National Convention in Anaheim, California.

Fraternally,

Alumni Connection Editorial Team

President Mark Stratton's 2010 National Convention Awards Banquet Key Note Address


Brothers -

Tonight, let me first say that I am honored by your trust and humbled by your faith.  Having been elected National President by you is indeed a great honor, but not so great as first being a brother in Alpha Phi Omega.  In truth, membership in Alpha Phi Omega is the highest honor that the Fraternity can bestow.
