the garage (see video)
WINTER EVENT - Hey All! We're looking to get together in the Dells for a winter hang! Friday, February 2nd through Sunday, February 4th - All are invited! Everyone is responsible for their own lodging. I recommend the Best Western Ambassador Inn & Suites. Eric Rice booked a room for Friday/Saturday and it was $264 total. If you are on the fence, just book a room, you can always cancel it later.
As far as itinerary, we might organize a bowling tournament, or can go ax throwing. From there we can pop around to the various bars downtown Dells.
Hope to see you there!

Brothers and Sisters!
Thank you for participating in the 2023 fundraising event at the Platteville Country Club. This is just a quick note to let you know the event was a great success, and this year's fundraising goal of a new furnace was achieved! The furnace is scheduled to be installed yet this month. Could not have done it without you. A placard with each of your names will be bonded to the furnace following the completion of the installation to commemorate your contribution....perhaps at a ceremony at homecoming.
Enclosed is an additional small token of our appreciation - an Emblem decal, featuring the beautiful grass of the Club's 18th hole as background in tribute. To all that attended in addition to contributing, on behalf of the attending members of the PSA Properties board, we want you to know it was great to see you, we sincerely appreciate you taking the time, and to let you know that the opportunity to bond as an organization is greatly valued by each of us. Hope to see you next year, if not at Homecoming October 7th; Join us for the "MARCH TO THE KICKOFF" old-timers parade from the house to the Pioneer Stadium; Scott Baumgartner has promised a huge turnout of Alumni from the elusive 1960's, 70's and 80's, so Gather around noon for 1:30 Kickoff!!
Hail the Evergrowing Throng!

Voting will be done through an online ballot with a few questions leading up to the main portion of the ballot where you will choose the next Treasurer and Secretary. The ballot will be open until November 12th and following that an announcement of who won.

It was announced at Homecoming that Jason Gieson and Mark Hallisy will not be running for reelection. I am not sure what we will do without them and I would like to thank them for everything they have done for Phi Sigma. So the next time you see them be sure to give them a toast and give them a big thank you.
Hail the Ever growing throng
Phi Sigma true and loyal
Brothers as we March along
Toward that good so bright press onward
Though we face adversity wherever we may roam
There's always fair weather boys
When the Phi Sig boys come home
Palmam qui Meruit Ferat,
