The Michigan Chapter of Delta Chi will be hosting this year’s annual reunion on the Michigan Homecoming weekend, September 24-26, 2021. Michigan will be facing Rutgers in the Big House.
Friday Night: Alumni, actives and their guests are invited to join us for a pizza party at the new chapter house from 6 PM to 10 PM or later. Pizza and soft drinks will be provided—donations are gladly accepted to help defray the cost, please make your RSVP on this eDelt. This will be an informal gathering, a chance to meet the current actives and reconnect with your classmates. These get-togethers have proven popular and well attended in years past.
Saturday Festivities: A catered luncheon will be provided in the chapter-house dining hall for alumni, actives and their guests from 12 to 1 PM. The cost will be $20 per person, please make sure to sign up since the caterer will need an accurate count for meals. The kickoff time for the football game is 3:30 which will enable ticket holders to hike or drive to the Big House and watch the Wolverines overwhelm the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. Other alumni, actives and guests are encouraged to enjoy the game on large-screen TVs in the chapter house. Following the game, please plan to join the brothers from your era in Ann Arbor for dinner at a local restaurant, e.g, Metzger’s or The Pretzel Bell. If lodging in Chelsea we will be making reservations at “Chelsea Bar & Grill” for interested alums.
Football Tickets: Football tickets surprisingly are available this year due to a variety of reasons. John Levinson will be able to acquire a block of tickets if we place an order soon. Therefore, if you wish to purchase tickets please advise Frank Morrey, at [email protected] or Keith Hellems at [email protected] as soon as possible.
Recommended Lodging: Ann Arbor hotels are largely booked on football weekends but we have reserved 12 rooms at the Comfort Inn in nearby Chelsea at the special rate of $105/night. Please make your reservations soon by calling 734-433-8000 and referencing “Delta Chi Fraternity Alumni”.
Sunday Morning: We will play golf at UofM’s Blue Course, weather permitting. Morning tee times are planned, so our out-of-town brothers can catch an airplane back home.

We look forward to having fellow brothers and their guests visit the chapter house. The chapter’s alumni association continues to improve the new chapter house for the actives, as well as make it a place for its alums to come back to. Through the generous donations of alumni, we have added picnic tables to the back deck and greatly boosted the WIFI signal within the house. Both of these enhancements proved critical during the pandemic. We are also creating a Wall of History and Heritage – a collection of composites that will allow you to “see yourself” in YOUR new house whenever you come back.
Homecoming is exactly that at Delta Chi. It is a chance to return to 1705 Hill Street and engage again with fellow brothers. Hope to see you there!

In the Bond,
The Delta Chi Alumni Association
