Last weekend we hosted our 6th Annual Golf Outing at Hawk Hollow Golf Course. It was an incredible day on the course filled with some great people. Huge thank you to everyone who came out and made it possible. Also we would like to thank our amazing hole sponsors for the event. Your support helps our chapter grow and continue making impact on our members.
(First photo) Congrats to these guys for winning the event. 🏆

With gratitude, AgrAbility accepted a check from the Alpha Gamma Rho fraternity in the amount of $16,000 today! This check will go far in placing assistive technology on farms and in use across Michigan. We thank AGR and the entire Beef Preview Community for their generosity and care. The reach you provide with these dollars goes far beyond what is seen!

Last week, the brothers of Alpha Gamma Rho Tau Chapter attended Michigan State Night at the Detroit Tigers game. They had a great time as the Tigers secured a win against the Brewers.

Introducing our April Brother of the Month: Owen Newland.
Owen rushed in the fall and has already made a huge impact on our chapter. As our current Activities Chair, he organized our annual formal in March and continues to plan social events while always looking for ways to improve the house. In his free time, you can find Owen playing yard games with the brothers and chatting it up.

Next Weekend!! 🚨
Our 6th Annual Golf Outing is next Sunday at Hawk Hallow Golf Course. We still have open spots for teams so please sign up now if you are not already. Can’t wait to see you on the course!

Several brothers volunteered their time to the City of Lansing with a River Clean Up on Saturday. The brothers trimmed back invasive plants to make sure the walking path was safe and enjoyable for the public. Thank you to all who participated.
