History of Sigma Omicron Lambda Chapter (𝚺𝚢𝚲)

Honorable Rev. Bro. Edward Johnson (Current Mayor of Fayetteville, Ga) made an interest call to the Brothers of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated  residing in the Fayette and Coweta counties of Georgia to consider chartering a chapter. He perceived a need for the service of Alpha in those counties. An interest group consisting of area brothers of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated was formed. 


The interest group began meeting at the historic Flat Rock A.M.E. Church in Fayetteville, Georgia where  Honorable Rev. Bro. Johnson was the Senior Pastor. Bro. Wiley Earl Hines Jr. was selected to preside over the interest group meetings. Bro. Darryl A. Hicks, Sr. was selected to lead the  chartering committee. Bro. Hicks communicated with the necessary District, Regional, and National officers to affect a charter. During a two-year period, the interest group met monthly at  Flat Rock A.M.E Church  or Bennett’s Mill Middle School where Bro. Dr. Marcus Broadhead was principal. The brothers participated in several service projects and local events.  National programs were  implemented  such as the  β€œBrothers Keeper” and β€œVoteless People Is A Hopeless People”. The interest group included several community leaders. Rev. Bro. James D. S. Vance was elected the Fayette County  NAACP chapter president. 


The brothers participated in the NAACP annual Martin Luther King Day parade. State Representative, Honorable Bro. Derrick Jackson invited the brothers to participate at the annual β€œAlpha Day” at the Georgia State Capitol. To celebrate the new bond an annual cookout was started by the interest group. On Saturday, July 27, 2019, Sigma Omicron Lambda Chapter was established at the fraternity’s 113th Anniversary |95th General Convention in Las Vegas, Nevada. The first installation of chapter officers was held on Saturday, October 5, 2019, at Bennett's Mill Middle School. The officers were duly installed by the Atlanta Metro Area two  Director, Bro. Pierre L. Gaither.
