CT Alpha sings the Anthem
W
hen the Sabbs Brothers Band (Vinnie Piselli '86, Mike
Gourdier '86, and Bill Gunn '88) approached the AVC with an
idea about hosting a social event to benefit chapter operations,
we knew this had huge potential for a great time. With COVID-19-related
distancing still a few weeks away, we had no idea this would be our last get
together for a while!
Our first winter social was held on Sunday, February 23, at the beautiful
Milford Arts Council (MAC) theater hall in the heart of downtown
Milford, Conn. e MAC was packed with an elbow-rubbing family of
well over 60 SigEp brothers and their sweethearts. e silent raffle table
was loaded with CT Alpha memorabilia, and as the room filled with
family, friends, and song, so did the buffet and drink tables with the
generous contributions of so many brothers!
With special guests joining the stage with the Sabbs Brothers, it felt like
old times. It did seem like time stopped when song chairman Bill led every
voice in the hall in singing the SigEp sweetheart song to our most senior,
and no doubt wiser, attendee, Dolph Santello '60 and his wife, Sandi.
Aer all was said and done, nearly $750 was raised to support the chapter.
What a great time reconnecting with old friends and meeting some new
ones! anks go out to all involved, especially to Michelle and Vinnie
Piselli '86, Lisa and Mike Gourdier '86, Ed Kaplan '88, Larry Carboni
'86, and Kim Langella for the amazing cake! As Vinnie said the next day, "I
bet I'm not alone in saying even 24 hours later—I still can't stop smiling!"
