The Dave & Woody Summer Tour – One Chapter at a Time takes a special detour to honor two extraordinary Sigma Chi brothers recently selected for the Fraternity's highest recognition—the Order of Constantine.Dave and Woody welcome Alan Fidelo and Tim Melnick, two of only 21 brothers selected worldwide for the 2026 Order of Constantine. Together they explore what it means to dedicate more than two decades of volunteer leadership, mentorship, and service to Sigma Chi.The conversation traces the rich history of the Order of Constantine, its connection to the legendary Civil War-era Constantine Chapter, and why members are often called Sigma Chi's "Eighth Founders." Alan and Tim share personal reflections on lifelong brotherhood, alumni engagement, House Corporation leadership, and the mentors who shaped their journey.The discussion also highlights how strong alumni involvement transforms undergraduate chapters into lifelong communities, before ending—as every good Dave & Woody episode should—with a little bourbon talk and a preview of upcoming Summer Tour stops.Join us as we celebrate two remarkable brothers whose commitment reminds us that Sigma Chi isn't just four years... it's a lifetime.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-can-help-with-dave-woody--5807494/support.
