The 2009 FVSU/CAU Xperience

Whew, what a day. If Saturday is any indication of how successful the 2009 BCFx Road Tour will be, let me say we are well on our way to a wonderful Xperience. First and foremost I want to thank all the fans, alumni, staff, and students from FVSU and CAU for all the support you gave us this weekend.

I was twit
tering (@MrBCFx) throughout the day of how the day went, but for those not on twitter, or not following me, here is how the day went.

We arrived at Fort Valley at 4am EST. We got to the new FVSU stadium early in the afternoon.




On the way to the stadium we were met by the Valley Girls. More on them, later.






We met our contact and then got asked to be in the Parade. We took the BCFx Bus to the Valley Girls to get it washed.





They are an organization on campus that does community service and raises money for the Athletic department. When the bus was clean, we made a donation to their scholarship fund on behalf of Nerjyzed Entertainment.



After the bus was washed we stopped on the side of the road where J-Right saw a Fish and Chitterlings sign.

We were told by the woman who owned the stand, where the fish was fried per order, to ask the next stand over about the Scuppernongs. Of course I had no idea what that was, so I had to go see for myself about this odd fruit. We bought some but then came to realize that 2 or 3 would have sufficed.





After the food adventure it was time to get in the parade.

Before the parade started we took pictures with the Cheer Squad and the Dancing Girls.



After the parade, we headed back to the school to set up at the Carnival.


A camera crew met us as soon as we opened the doors and J-right worked his magic and got everyone in the area hype about the game even before we were set up.

We set up the inside of the bus with FVSU vs. CAU in both the drumline challenge and the football game.



On the outside we had 2 tents, 2 TVs and our stereo system set up on the TV with the drumline challenge.

It was non stop on the bus and on the outside of our footprint.

We packed up the bus close to halftime. We entered the stadium, threw some t-shirts in the crowd, and gave away a $100 bill to the lucky 300th person to text "BCFXGAME" to 41-411.

Overall it was a great day and everyone had fun. The next stop on the 2009 BCFx Road Tour is the Alabama State vs. Concordia game on 9/5 in Motgomery, AL and then the next day, 9/6 in Birmingham, AL, for the 3rd Annual Labor Day Golden Classic (Miles vs. TU @ Legion Field). We look forward to seeing everyone in Alabama.

WORLD'S OLDEST AND LARGEST AFRICAN-AMERICAN SORORITY TO CELEBRATE CENTENNIAL IN 2008

WORLD'S OLDEST AND LARGEST AFRICAN-AMERICAN SORORITY
TO CELEBRATE CENTENNIAL IN 2008
Member Phylicia Rashad Among Guests Scheduled to Attend Festivities

Chicago, Illinois – November 29, 2007 - In January 2008, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., becomes the first African-American sorority to reach its 100-year milestone. In commemoration, from January 12-15, thousands of members will make a solemn pilgrimage to their founding Home of Howard University in Washington, D.C. There, in a series of joyous and solemn tributes, they will salute Alpha chapter on its Centennial and reflect on the journey that took them from nine founding members of Alpha Chapter in 1908 on one campus of Howard University, to 200,000 members in 975 chapters worldwide.

Led by international president Barbara A. McKinzie, members will walk hallowed ground and engage in a series of sentimental rites of passage. They will also pay tribute to the foremothers whose brilliant vision gave life to Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority. They include Ethel Hedgeman Lyle, Anna Easter Brown, Beulah Burke, Lillie Burke, Marjorie Hill, Margaret Flagg Holmes, Lavinia Norman, Lucy Slowe and Marie Woolfolk Taylor.

In reflecting on Alpha Kappa Alpha's remarkable100- year odyssey and the host of commemorative events being mounted by the sorority in 2008, McKinzie declared, " The prevailing message of this celebration is that Alpha Chapter members continue to accomplish the goals established by the founding members and continue to live up to the Sorority's credo: 'to provide service to all mankind.' It is a foundation of service that has withstood the test of time because our founding mothers had a profound vision of the impact African-American women could achieve through the vessel of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority."

McKinzie said that the Sorority has endured because it was built on a bedrock of strength, "The conviction of our founders to create an organization dedicated to service has enabled Alpha Kappa Alpha to thrive through ten decades. In this 100-year span of time, we have rendered an invaluable service to the worldwide community. During this Centennial year of tributes, we will salute, honor and revere our members who brought us this far by faith. We will also look ahead to the future as we continue the legacy of service."

This nostalgic pilgrimage home to Alpha chapter, will feature A Walk Through History where members will follow the same sacred paths as the founders. In what is being hailed as an "emotional visit," members will also rededicate themselves to the powerful concept of service that represents the sorority's core mission. Among those who will return to their roots include five former international presidents, and high-profile members like Actress Phylicia Rashad; The Honorable Peggy Quince, Florida Supreme Court Judge; and 102-year old Mrs. Hazel Hainsworth Young, a retired educator from the Houston public schools and one of the Sorority's most senior members.

The campus will be bedecked with Historical Markers that will chronicle pink-and-green- letter-dates in Alpha Kappa Alpha's history. In an act of remembrance, members will re-enact the ceremonial process that led to the birth of Alpha chapter and Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority.

As the historic birthplace, AKA history is embedded in the fabric of Howard University. Because of this, Moorland-Spingarn Research Center, the official home for Alpha Kappa Alpha's archival records, will add a Centennial exhibit to its vast Alpha Kappa Alpha collection.

The Centennial birthday celebration will feature the launch of the Sorority's official publication, Ivy Leaf, in digital form. Taking the magazine to a new technological level represents a milestone in Alpha Kappa Alpha's long and impressive history.

And, in keeping with the Sorority's credo "to provide service to all mankind," members will participate in a series of projects where they will outreach to seniors, cancer patients and respond to the needs of the community. A climactic high point of the weekend will be the dedication of a library. Sorority members will donate books to the library and solicit donations of reading material from area bookstores.

The weekend is being driven by the theme, Extra Special Preservation, which embraces President's McKinzie's ESP programmatic theme. Heading the Centennial Birthday Celebration Committee, which is overseeing the celebratory festivities, is Faye Bryant, Alpha Kappa Alpha's 21st national president and former Alpha Chapter member.

McKinzie said the Alpha Birthday Celebration is the first of two major celebrations to take place during its Centennial year. She announced that more than 20,000 members will converge upon Washington, D.C. for its Centennial International Conference from July 12-18. At that time, more tributes and commemorations will take place. At the same time, the sorority will engage in a weeklong series of meetings, plenaries and "conversations" about how to deal with today's pressing issues while charting a course for the Sorority as it enters its second millennium. The public will be invited to some of the events.

########## -
Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority is America's first Greek-letter organization founded in 1908 by, and for, African-American college women. Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, it is one of the world's leading service organizations. The sorority's members have made a commitment "to serve all mankind" through a nucleus of more than 200,000 women in over 975 chapters in the United States, the Caribbean, Canada, Germany, Korea, Japan and in the continent of Africa. Barbara A. McKinzie is the 27th International President. Because her term coincides with the 100-year anniversary, she is being hailed as the "Centennial National President." McKinzie's administration is marked by the theme: ESP, which stands for Economics, Service and Partnerships. For more information, log on to www.aka1908. com.

BCFX Road Tour - Jackson State

Yesterday the road team made it to Jackson State to set up today on campus. We had a real good showing. The kids loved the game. The bus was always filled. Outside in the main tent, we showed the halftime show from a bunch of schools. Some of the band members said that we must have enhanced some of the music files because the bands they heard NEVER played that well.

The game had the students cheering. The football team got on to check their stats. They started joking each other about who was rated higher than who. Overall it was a good day for Nerjyzed.

As always Nerjyzed Entertainment would like to thank all the students, alumni, and friends of Jackson State, and everyone else involved for alowing us to bring BCFX to their campus.

Stay tuned to http://www.nerjyzed.com & http://www.bcfxgame.com for more details.
