Greetings to MY Brothers of Eta Omega Chapter:

I want to take this opportunity to extend heartfelt well-wishes on a successful Achievement Week Banquet. I am certain that the committee, working in concert with the rest of the members of the chapter will ensure this banquet is filled with the true Omega Spirit our founders envisioned.

With the essence of friendship, Eta Omega has been a model chapter within the Atlanta Metropolitan communities as well as throughout the district and across our international organization. No further evidence of this than the rich history of leadership that has derived from this band of trailblazers ascending to the highest office within our fraternity. Your countless efforts have been recognized with numerous past awards such as the reigning International Large Graduate Chapter of the year. Backing that feat up at this year’s Georgia State Workshop further illuminates the leadership Eta Omega possesses.

Spurred by a racial awakening, the Citizen of the Year Award, was launched over 101 years ago. This was the backdrop to Achievement Week, of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Incorporated. Your culmination celebration of the chapter’s exceptional work for this year directly aligns with our theme: Providing Uplift to Local, National and World Communities.

As your District Representative, I take great pride in the continuous support this chapter has provided to our great fraternity. You should rejoice as well in this Achievement Week Banquet and know that your continued pursuit of excellence is acclaimed.

Cheers to 103 years of blood, sweat and tears for dear Omega! Long Live the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Eta Omega Chapter and God preserve her ideals!

Eta Omega Chapter has played a pivotal role in the history of Omega. You are the reining International Large Graduate Chapter of the Year and two time State of Georgia Large Graduate Chapter of the Year.

Through your diligence and perseverance, you have paved the way for many chapters to follow. I have personally seen the brothers of Eta Omega Chapter stay true to the cardinal principles of Omega by executing the mandated programs which involve mentoring young men, providing scholarships, registering, and educating voters, and feeding those who are hungry. So today, I pause to salute you on a job well done.

Omega Psi Ph Fraternity Inc. Providing Uplift to Local, National and World Communities, is an appropriate theme for this year’s Achievement Week Celebration. Men of Omega are forward thinkers just as our Founders. We are needed now more than ever.
