Viva Las Vegas

Doug Hirsh was in Vegas for a family wedding and stopped by the Paris Las Vegas Casino to catch up with Past Beta House President J.D. Noel. J.D. has built a long and storied career and is the manager for both the Paris and the Horseshoe Casinos. Handsome dudes.

Jim Beale 1950-2023

 Just learned of the passing of Brother James Martin Beale, Jr. Jim or "Mr. Beale" as we liked to call him was friendly, laid back, and a life-long Beta. RIP Señor Beale.

Naples IX and the Boyz of April

 

So this was it—the last Boyz weekend at Casa Uihlein. Hurricane Ian, the third costliest weather disaster on record and the worst Hurricane to hit Florida since 1935 pronounced the end of nine years of brotherly homecomings in the Sunshine State. Sadly Brother Veasey was unable to attend, but more reunions will take place as the flame cannot be extinguished—yet at some new place and time as we accept Father Time and savor the memories of reunions past. 

Thank God I'm a Beta.
