Brother Chuck Newcomer
Nobody puts on a party on Derby Day like the Brothers of Sigma Chi at Robson Ranch! This year, Brother Harvey and Sweetheart Pat Sands opened up their home for the celebration. And, of course, they provided mint juleps and Derby Day margaritas. The Sandses’ home became the temporary designated Chapter House at Robson Ranch due to the regular Chapter House being unoccupied due to travel. Brothers Mick Fox and Dan Nicolet handled the annual wagging on the race. Brother Dan Nicolet’s Sweetheart Marylon was the big winner, but the winning couple was Brother Norm Leggett and Sweetheart Nancy. Brother Norm and Nancy were the overall winners by winning first and second in Brother Dan’s Derby Pick ’em contest. Brother Fox opened our event with a prayer, and later the Brothers serenaded their Sweethearts with a hardy rendition of “The Sweetheart of Sigma Chi,” with Brother Humphries providing signing for the hearing impaired.
The Brothers remain on double secret probation at the Ranch! Any Sigma Chi’s living at the Ranch who would like to join the group should contact Brother John Humphries at CQJH@aol.com.
