The members of the unrecog
nized organization Sigma
Kappa Nu participated in a
snowball softball fundraising
event for the March of Dimes
organization on Feb. 13.
SKN umpired all of the
games played at the event. Be
tween 12 and 15 co-ed adult
softball teams from all over the
Erie area participated in the
event. Each team donated
$150.00 to the cause.
“It was a wonderful experi
ence; we had 14 members of
Sigma Kappa Nu out there hav
ing a great time while helping
the community. One of the rea
sons our fraternity was founded
back in 1983 was to better the
Erie community. We are contin
uing to take steps to do our part
in that cause,” said Alex Weid
ner, a fourth semester student
at Behrend.
According to Adam Fried
man, the SKN president, the
leaders of the tournament were
extremely grateful for the 14 +
brothers that came out in the
cold weather and donated their
time. SKN plans to continue
volunteering for this event in
the future. The March of Dimes
Foundation has a multiple day
softball tournament in the
spring that SKN will be forming
a team for.

“It is important for us as a

so many different fields of med

it was the very least we could
do,” McElveney said.
In the future, SKN would like
to host events and fundraisers
on campus, but thus far they
have had problems doing so be
cause they are an unrecognized
fraternity, said McElveney.
