college fairs this fall

Traditionally, UT participates in the National College Fair in DC. This year, there are several college fairs available, and we're looking for folks who are willing to donate a little time to spread the good word about the University of Tennessee campuses. The fairs are listed below. Please e-mail rachel@dcvols.com if you're interested in helping. Be sure to list which fair(s) you would like to help with.

We only need a few people to participate in a fair, so even if you're only available part of the time and are willing, let us know. Chattanooga and Martin grads are encouraged to attend as well!

UT/UF happy hour

Join us for a happy hour with our friends -- yes, we actually like these guys -- the DC Gators. They're very excited about sharing a few drinks with us, so bring a friend and come on down.

Specials: Happy hour prices for drinks and appetizers ($2.50: domestics, house wine, and house mixed drinks. Half price appetizers). They will also give us part of the bar and some of the restaurant area to mingle.

Please e-mail tnalumni@gmail.com if you have any questions.

Registration is not required, but it will help us determine how much room we need at the bar. To RSVP, go to: http://utufhappyhour.eventbrite.com/

Are we in for joy or heartache this season? Tell us what your predictions are for the season and find out more about local game watching parties here.

2007 football game watching parties

We're excited to be watching the 2007 football season at Bailey's in Crystal City. Game watching parties start 30 minutes prior to each game. As usual, we will be having raffles during half time. The raffles are the chapter's only way to raise money to operate throughout the year. The money is used to supplement events and pay for any satellite feeds for football or basketball broadcasts. For more information, see below. We are continually striving to make everyone's game watching experience enjoyable. Questions and comments — for better or worse — are encouraged. Please e-mail tnalumni@gmail.com.
