Epsilon Kappa's Founding Class

Founding

On the 27th of April, 2007 the Epsilon Kappa chapter first established itself. This was a major event in Wentworth's history because it is the first and only National Honor Fraternity allowed on Wentworth's campus. Due to the founding being between semesters, Epsilon Kappa has yet to establish a unique tradition to celebrate its Founder's Day.

Early Years

With purpose and determination, Epsilon Kappa began making a name for itself on campus. The chapter, over the course of only one year, managed to nearly double itself in size. Motivated by the strong leadership of first President Sean Garrity and Vice President Adam Palmer, Epsilon Kappa continued to collect the top students at Wentworth Institute of Technology.

-This is Epsilon Kappa's flagship event each year. An entire committee was formed to ensure the smooth planning and execution of this event. Last year it was held on March 28th, Epsilon Kappa holds a Dance Marathon for the Boston Children's Hospital located just down the road from Wentworth on Longwood Avenue. In its first year it drew in over one hundred and fifty (150) people to Watson Auditorium on Wentworth's campus and just over seven thousand dollars ($7000) for the local hospital. Usual donors include local businesses and radio stations like; Boloco: Inspired Burritos, JAMN 94.5, Monster Energy, HyDrive Drinks, Popeye's Chicken, Qdoba Mexican Grill, and Shaw's who provide drinks, food, entertainment, and prizes for the event.

-=== MS Walk ===
+== The Current Chapter ==
-The chapter completed its first walk for Multiple Sclerosis in the Spring semester of 2008. With over 75% of the active brothers (of the time) participating, and raising over $3100.00, the event was quite a success. The Service Committee chair responsible for the event had this to say:
-"...this event was very successful. ...14 brothers collected $100.00 or more. ...Everyone was excited for this walk and enjoyed themselves. This event require teamwork and trust that everyone would pull their own weight to meet our $3000.00 goal set for our team. When we arrive at the walk to check-in and register, the volunteers from National Multiple Sclerosis Society (NMSS) knew of us because of the amount we had raised, and they were thrilled to have us. This made us very proud to be part of a group that was able to help such a great cause."

-=== Camp Sunshine Pumpkin Festival ===
+'''Committee Heads'''
-This event brought the brothers together in support of 'Camp Sunshine', an organization that provides a retreat for children with life threatening illnesses. Camp Sunshine hosts an annual Pumpkin Festival at Boston City Hall. This festival consists of a series of activities designed to entertain families, including games, food, and pumpkin carving. The brothers assisted in any way we could. We applied ourselves as general volunteers for the event, as it runs entirely on volunteers, and were placed where we were needed. We aided the event by preparing pumpkins to be carved, collecting donations, entertaining children while they waited in line (i.e. providing stickers), hosting/running game stands provided by Camp Sunshine, and finally lighting pumpkins for the final ceremony. This event was a great success, and the Camp appreciated the chapters participation.
