Hello Brothers,
It is TOASTY OUT! Honestly, our summer BBQ and that cool Fall Tailgate season cannot come quick enough! I hope that you all have been safe from the heat and from the rising COVID infections going around. The DFWAA has been busy this summer, networking with other greeks, attending Nationals in Houston, and hanging out with our DFW brotherhood.
This summer has been a memorable one, and whether its a quick 30 minute pop in at an event, or volunteering to join our Executive Board. I encourage you all to take the time to meet us up and rekindle that brotherhood fire.
As always, my contact info is below, I'm always down for a chat, dinner, or hang out.
Keep safe and Keep the HYPE Bros!
Yours in Service and Brotherhood,
Mike Dominguez

ODPhi Takes Over on the Space City
for 2022 National Convention
|
|
|
Nationals in Houston this year was a great turn out for both Undergrad and Alumni. With the new Alumni centered workshops, golf tournament, Alumni Social, and more. It was definitely one for the books! Next year's National Conference will be held at Epsilon Chapter, in Phoenix, Arizona.
Vice President of Alumni Engagement, Jose Lara, and National President, Jesus Apodaca, laid our their plans for Revamping Alumni Engagement, as well as their plans for creating Professional Rush Program for those graduated individuals that share our values of serving the community but find ODPhi after college.
If you are interested in helping our national organization connect and grow its alumni chapters across the Nation. Please contact:

The DFWAA's Field Day Team had a great time competing in this first DFW Field day event. ODPhi started out strong by sweeping the first 3 events, but after a hard fought competition, placed 2nd Place overall in the Tournament. We are thankful for the KDChi Dallas Alumni Association for setting up this event, and it was great to network with the other DFW Greek Alumni In the area. We look forward to more mixed events in the future!
