Similar to 2022, a few Delts began the Monon Bell Weekend a few days early.  603WW organized a dutch treat dinner at the Blue Cactus in Crawfordsville followed by a fun evening at the local Kickin' Axe!

The next morning a similar group enjoyed a now-traditional breakfast at the Wallace Opry in the tiny burgh of Wallace, IN.

A presentation for the 603WW group was provided by Dr. David Hadley on Friday after lunch at the Crawfordsville Public Library.  Several Delts attended including Rob, Roger, Bill, all students of Dr. Hadley.

As the upcoming Monon Bell Game falls on Veterans' Day,
this display at the Opry was apropos .  .  .

Dr. Robert Henry's house, once
across Crawford Avenue from the Delt shelter,
is long gone with the renovation of
the Sigma Chi house into the TKE house.
A tree was planted nearby with this stone
commemorating the Henry house.

Monon Bell 2025

That's Derek '79 in the Wabash hoodie. The 131st Football Competition between the dannies of Depauw versus the Little Giants of Wabash took place this past weekend and proved that the Delts, once again, certainly know how to throw a great party.  Unfortunately, our footballers failed to deliver a score we preferred, but it was a terrific weekend nonetheless.  Please comment below with any suggested edits, corrections, additions or updates. For the folks who flew to Indy for the weekend, this was their view of downtown. For John '82, he brought his home with him. Beautiful central Indiana sunset, followed by the Northern Lights. These early arrivals caught the basketball game at Chadwick Court.  Murph '76, Randy '77, John '82 Our basketball team dominated almost the entire game and the score reflects that. Randy '77 is in the grey jacket at the bottom left. Photo by John Murphy Many 603 WW members stay at  Camp Rotary for the camaraderie and campfires. Photo ...
