West Chester, Pa September 28, 2018—The Brothers of Omicron Mu Nu, treated students from the West Chester Area School District, and families from Lifeline Community Church of Coatesville to the Phillies game against the Atlanta Braves.
Thanks to The Philadelphia Phillies Community Engagement Coordinator, Kenny Johnson the brothers were able to treat 100 people total to the game with premium seating in the 100 level of Citizens Bank Park. So although the Phillies didn’t come out on top students and families certainly did.
According to West Chester’s local online news outlet The Daily Local the students, aged 8 to 15, and their chaperones were given the opportunity to attend what was, for many, their first baseball games thanks to the Omicron Mu Nu Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Krapf School Buses, and the Office of the Mayor of West Chester.
Basileus Darius Taylor says we’re a small chapter but we’re extremely active. We participate in as many community activities has we can constantly working to better serve the Chester County community, particularly by providing adult male mentorship to local students.
“The commitment of these fraternity brothers to provide positive male mentorship and give young students an opportunity like this is highly commendable,” said West Chester Mayor Dianne Herrin. “I’m grateful to them and to Blake Krapf for helping us build strong community here in West Chester. And the game was great fun!”…Mayor Dianne Herrin
“When Mayor Herrin explained the work of the alumni brothers of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Omicron Mu Nu Chapter, I was more than happy to have the opportunity to donate to their cause by providing transportation for the youngsters and their chaperones to a Phillies game,” Krapf said. “The commitment of this group of West Chester University graduates to afford valuable mentoring to young disadvantaged students is commendable and plays an important part in helping to better our community.”….Blake Krapf
