JACK BUCHHEIT INTERCHAPTER TRAVEL COMPETITION
"Joining a fraternity means nothing. But when you have really worked for it, sweated for it, cursed it, and loved it, as well as the men in it, you have something."- The Kovner Quote: The Legacy of Alfred "Koko" Kovner
The Purpose of this award is to promote increased communication among our chapters and colonies. The Award will be based on the following criteria:
Points are awarded for mileage driven/flown from home chapter to chapter visited (1 mile = 1 point);
Mileage will be counted One Way only;
If more than one chapter is visited on the same trip: First chapter visited, follow the above rules. Second chapter visited, mileage will be the difference between those two visited.
For example: if Windsor visits Temple [610 miles away in Philadelphia] and then visits U. Penn [also in Philly, 5 miles away from Temple], Windsor would receive 610 points for trip to Temple and an additional 5 points for the trip across town to U. Penn;
Points are awarded per man. Therefore, if 3 men made the above mentioned trip from Toronto to Temple to Penn, the chapter would received 1845 points (3 x 610 plus 3 x 5);
Contest is open to all Pilam chapters and colonies;
Travel to Conclaves can be included;
Travel to Convention is not to be included;
Competition runs from one Convention to one month prior to the next Convention. Points will be tabulated and compiled by the International Headquarters Staff; and
A trophy will be awarded at Convention each year.
