As Alpha Men, we have been gifted with the burden of caring and upholding the light of this great fraternity. As we convene in Pittsburgh, our emphasis will be “The Resilience of Leadership” with a focus on how we train leaders to be impervious to challenges and how to recover from setbacks.

"I went through hell founding this organization and I want something done about these problems. Think of it, we have over a hundred and twenty chapters and I ask what are we doing...We must fight till hell freezes over and then fight on the ice." – Jewel Robert Harold Ogle Our application of this visionary theme will continue to propel AlphaEast forward in “Leading the Way” by preparing our brothers, for the greatest usefulness in conducting the work of Alpha.

Socially, the Brothers of Pittsburgh will ensure we are pleased with a variety of entertainment and sporting options from the Pittsburgh Cultural District, Market Square, Point State Park, and the Rivers Casino– just minutes away, along with numerous nightclubs, bars and restaurants, shopping centers and a plethora of other attractions. Considering all that’s in store, we encourage you to make plans and register now!
