Fav APO Memory: “I’m tied between two big things for my favorite memories. I went to national convention in December of 2018 and was a voting delegate. Being someone who was playing a factor in determining the future for our fraternity was a really rewarding experience. But also this past semester a huge group of us went and overnighted at a state park that we also volunteer at. There was so many of us that me and a group of people spent the night in a tent. The event we volunteer at is so big and being able to spend close time with so many of my brothers (because no cell service) is such a bonding experience that some of my favorite little memories came from that!!”

His fun fact is that this past summer he went abroad to Belgium for an internship!

Everyone was kind which made it easier to make friends as well."

Why I Joined: “I had just transferred to George Mason and didn't know anybody. I wanted to join a group that did community service, but would also give me the opportunity to make friends and develop leadership skills.”
Why I Stayed: “The people! Everyone is really great and makes it a lot of fun. I have grown professionally from my time on E-board and really love all of the events I have gotten to be a part of because of the service events that we volunteer for. My favorite event is the Fall and Spring retreat to Sky Meadows because it's like a big sleepover in the mountains where we get to help out for an awesome event!”

Hello everyone! Just releasing an updated schedule for our rush period. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about events, locations, or about APO itself! Look forward to seeing everyone at our events. RUSH APO!
UPDATE: Our rush bbq will now take place in the Liberty Square Courtyard tonight at 6 pm. See you there!
Welcome to our Fall Rush week! As we meet you, we want you to meet the faces of our chapter!! To kick us off, meet Bridget, our current chapter President.
Bridget joined because her friend was in Boy Scouts and was also interested in joining. Plus, she needed a reason to leave her dorm freshman year!
What got her hooked on APO was everything that APO had to offer. She loved community service and ended up finding a huge group of people that shared that same love. On top of that, APO gave her a sense of belonging that she hadn’t felt before.
.
.

Our first Rush event is tonight at 6pm! We hope to see you there 😊
