Happy New Year and greetings from your St. Elmo Board,
2025 was a great year for St. Elmo Hall. We completed overdue structural improvements to our historic ‘mo Lodge — at a total cost north of $1.3M invested over the past three years. We welcomed an outstanding pledge class, were impressed by the house GPA (second amongst Greek organizations), were inspired by the undergrads’ philanthropic activities, enjoyed a couple Parents’ Weekends, were grateful for a successful Wahoo football season, and (if you can believe it) began thinking about/planning for our Elmo 120th — not to be missed in 2028!
As has become our annual tradition, we hope you will join us in NYC on Saturday, January 31, 2026 for a basketball watch party as we cheer on the Wahoos when they take to the hardwood against Boston College! We will be gathering at Amity Hall Downtown for drinks and appetizers. The restaurant would like a headcount, so please RSVP to Lori and Tommy Brannock (text Lori 434-242-1617 or email lolobrannock@mac.com) at your earliest convenience. We hope to see you there!
UVA Basketball Watch Party
Saturday, January 31
1-4 p.m.

If you know of an Elmo in or near NYC who did not receive this invite and would like to join, please have them contact us — the more the merrier!
Best wishes for a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year.
