On Friday, April 29th, Pi Kappa Phi hosted our Spring Formal at the Hilton Garden Inn Iowa City Downtown University. This event is to celebrate the chapter and individual brother’s accomplishments from the past year, recognize graduating seniors, award outstanding members, and to have a fun event to end out the year.
The brothers started at the chapter house to finish getting ready, meet their dates and brothers, and take pictures before taking a bus to the Hilton. Upon arrival at the Hilton, we all were able to eat our dinner selection of chicken parmesan, chicken piccata, and baked cavatelli, along with salad and breadsticks. After everyone had gotten a chance to eat and sit down, we started out Fogarty Awards Presentation.
Here are the brothers that won awards as voted on by the chapter:

Congratulations to all the brothers that won awards and were recognized. Huge thank you to Kyle Peterson and Henry Gramstrup for talking as well. These two individuals are two graduating seniors this semester, and it was great to hear some thoughts from them as they finish up their time here at the University of Iowa and as an undergraduate brother of Pi Kappa Phi.
Overall, it was a great night where all the brothers and guests had a great time. Special thanks to Ellie Piech to taking awesome pictures for our chapter throughout our formal! All the photos from the night can be found here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/195395163@N07/sets/72177720298532885/
