Spring Cleaning
As the seasons change, there have been some improvements around the house. During interim we re-carpeted the 2nd and 3rd floors as well as re-tiled the shower floor. Additionally the '13s thoroughly cleaned the Gote Room over the weekend. We are going to continue our efforts in updating the bathroom over the course of the term and we will blog as we make improvements. Many thanks to Marcel Wolff '12, our previous houseman, for organizing and troubleshooting this project over Spring Break.

Cool Runnings
On a sweltering August day this past summer, four of our brothers took to the byroads and hills of Hanover and the Upper Valley for the 5th Annual CHaD (Children's Hospital at Dartmouth) Hero Half Marathon.
13.1 miles was as nothing before the bull-like stamina of Team Fly-Kap. Having trained for weeks and consumed copious amount of wheat-based products in preparation, brothers Jerry Watchman '11, Conrad Whitaker '11, Jack Wang '11 and Tomi Jun '08, coursed over the granite of New Hampshire like the Spring's first thaw.
Brother Watchman, a former varsity cross country athlete, finished in a cool 1:32:33, 7th in the 20-29 age group. Overall results can be found here.
Jerry Watchman leaves them in the dust
Tomi Jun strides along
Conrad Whitaker barrels through
Jack Wang bounds across the finish line
All told, Team Fly-Kap raised just over $300. This amount was matched by the Positive Tracks Challenge Grant, pushing Tri-Kap's contribution over the $600 mark.
Tri-Kap brothers demonstrate once again that they are above all in both strength and heart.

Legendary Tri-Kap Returns to Our Hallowed Halls
The brothers of Tri-Kap had a special treat on August 4th. One of our most famous brothers, Nick Lowery '78, returned to the house for a discussion. Nick Lowery was an All-Pro kicker for the Kansas City Chiefs and is currently a motivational speaker, who travels across the country for numerous philanthropic efforts. Brother Lowery spoke to the house about his time at 1 Webster, his years in the NFL, life lessons he wished to share, and his current interests. The brothers were deeply moved by all Brother Lowery had to offer.
The Brotherhood attentively listens to Nick Lowery
Not only did Nick speak to the brothers, but he also came to meetings that night. He was a great sport, participating a great deal and leading the house song. After meetings, he also showed us how pong was played during his time at Dartmouth. He certainly has not lost his form, playing just as well as he did during his Sophomore Summer when he won the inaugural World Championship of Pong.

Sophomore Summer
The brothers of 1 Webster have truly enjoyed the summer. Brothers have been taking advantage of the great weather; playing IM soccer and softball, taking PE sailing, learning how to golf, and enjoying the Ledges. On Sunday August 8th some of our boys enjoyed a beautiful afternoon, including softball practice, the Ledges, and a barbecue.
Dan Whalen, Deep Shah, Juan Gonzalez, Max David, and Cameron Sharman
Share a laugh, while taking in the gorgeous surroundings
Marcel Wolff and Max Yoeli get their tan on
Saagar Kaul and Parker prepare to jump in
Overall, the entire brotherhood, especially the 12s, have bonded, relaxed, and Broed out during 10X. Although there have been a lot of fun and games, the brothers have put a great deal of effort into improving the house. The 12s completed one of the thoroughest attic cleanups in recent history and have upgraded the physical plant. This certainly has been one unforgettable summer.

Read All About It: Retired Professor Tells All
Last Monday, the House hosted retired Dartmouth professor Jere Daniell, who gave a lecture on the history of the Greek system at Dartmouth.
Daniell entertains brothers and guests with stories about days of yore
Over pizza and apple pie, Daniell, an Alpha Theta '55, regaled brothers and pledges with tale of playing pong and "Hums" competitions while providing a comprehensive overview of the trials and triumphs of the Greek system at Dartmouth. According to Daniell, the Greek system is the strongest it has been since the '50s, and he's confident that because of the current administration's positive views of the Greek system and current student's leadership abilities, it will remain to be strong for years to come.

MLK Day
Today we celebrate the work and life of Martin Luther King, Jr.
This day is especially relevant to Tri-Kap historically. Dr. King visited Dartmouth in 1962 and gave a speech entitled "Towards Freedom" in Dartmouth Hall 105. Afterwards, he came to our house for a reception. Tri-Kap was chosen because, as a local fraternity, we had a diverse brotherhood that was not restricted by most national organizations' strict segregation policies.After the reception at 1 Webster, Dr. King famously stated: "Well, that's the best KKK meeting I've ever been to."
The full transcript of his speech can be read here.
