The Pendleton Award is the Province 27 Outstanding Chapter Award. This award was started in 1999 to encourage province interaction. As one of three fraternity members to go from Boston and work to establish chapters of Sinfonia in Philadelphia, New York, and Washington, Ralph Howard Pendleton understood that in order for Sinfonia to flourish, it had to grow. This mission to experience fraternity in its largest sense is vital to the collegiate experience and the survival of our order.
Chapter members earn points for their chapter by attending events outside of their chapter. The chapter earning the most points during the calendar year will receive the award.
