The Michigan Chapter of Delta Chi will be hosting this year’s annual reunion on the Michigan Homecoming weekend, September 23-25, 2022. Michigan will be facing the Maryland Terrapins in the Big House, kick-off is at 12 noon.
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 RSVP here). This event 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: Coffee and donuts will be provided at the chapter house at 10 AM for those who want to hike or drive the Big House and watch the Wolverines squish the Terrapins. Other alumni, actives and guests are encouraged to enjoy the game on large-screen TVs in the chapter house. Following the game, please return to the chapter house for happy hour (BYOB) and to plan your evening’s activities which may include joining brothers from your era for dinner in Ann Arbor at a local restaurant, for example, Metzger’s or the rejuvenated Pretzel Bell.
Football Tickets: Football tickets should be available this year. Please let us know as soon as possible to hopefully acquire a block of tickets. (If you wish to purchase tickets, please advise Frank Morrey, at [email protected] or Keith Hellems at [email protected].)
Recommended Lodging: We still have several rooms available at the Comfort Inn in nearby Chelsea for an unbelievably low rate of $115/night, try to match that at any hotel in Ann Arbor! These rooms can only be held until September 10. So 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. It’s a collection of composites that will allow you to “see yourself” in YOUR new house whenever you come back to Ann Arbor. More later on this project.
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
