"...encourage chivalry, to diffuse culture, to develop character,
and in the Service of God and Man…" - The Sigma Pi Creed


 

 

Oozeball

Oozeball is our annual mud volleyball tournament held on the campus of The University of West Alabama. It's purpose is to benefit the Fraternity's new national philanthropy, the SAM Spady Foundation in an effort to raise alcohol awareness.

Each year, the event has steadily increased in popularity, and last year, over 200 students attended Oozeball, raising over $500 for charity.

  Thanksgiving Baskets

This fall, we held our 4th annual canned food drive for needy families in the Livingston area. Working with Livingston First Baptist Church and the Sumter County DHR, we were able to give several families turkeys and the traditional meal.

 

  Adopt-an-Area

We adopted the corner at the north entrance of campus as our "Adopt-an-Area." We are responsible for maintaining the spot, weeding and planting new flowers.

 

  Sumter County Red Cross Disaster Team

We serve as the Disaster Team for the Red Cross in Sumter County. We are supervised and trained by the West Alabama Chapter in Tuscaloosa. In the fall of 1998, Theta Gamma assisted the Sumter County EMA when Hurricane Georges struck the Gulf Coast. We assisted the Red Cross by helping to set up a shelter on the UWA Campus in the Armory. We also were responsible for obtaining supplies and donation, registering those housed at the shelter and dismantling the shelter. Brothers worked around the clock as evacuees sought refuge in Livingston.

 

  Sumter County Poll Watching

Brothers worked as poll watchers for most of the voting sites in Sumter County in the 1998 and 2000 elections. Sumter County, known for its prevalent voter fraud, was under a watchful eye by Sigma Pi Fraternity. Brothers worked from 7 AM until 7 PM at places ranging from Coatopa to Epes to Boyd. Brothers made notes of fraud that took places throughout the day and stayed in contact with officials.
