Flower Dance

Flower Dance is the annual spring semester formal held by the Colorado Gamma Chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon. Flower Dance began in 1933 before moving to the chapter's newly purchased 121 East Lake Street property in 1935. Since 2001, the Flower Dance tradition has continued at Eagle Canyon Ranch in the Larimer County foothills.

21st Century Flower Dance

In 2001, Flower Dance returned with full galantry and was moved off-property for the first time. Eagle Canyon Ranch, located in the foothills west of Horsetooth Reservoir, has hosted Flower Dance each year since 2001 and has been a spectacular setting for the historic event since moving it off-property.

Flower Dance was held in the front yard of the chapter house at 121 E Lake Street in Fort Collins for the last time in 1999.

Building the scene for Flower Dance in the front yard of the chapter house was a week long event that was often as much fun as the event itself.

The hand-built stage and pond can be seen in the accompanying photo taken at the 1999 Flower Dance. In this photo you will find Brian Summers '03, Kristin Lohman, Mike Glasser '00, the future Mr. & Mrs. Ryan Scheich '01, and Rob Boyer '99 just to mention a few.

"On May 2, 1987, we held our traditional and 54th annual Flower Dance. it is still considered to be the best dance of the campus for the year.

The festive day included an Alumni golf tournament in the morning and cocktails, dinner and dancing in the vening.

This year's Flower Dance was especially exciting as many of you returned to celebrate with us and many other Colorado Gamma Alums. It was great seeing you all again!"
