Presidents Excellence Institute (PresX) is designed specifically for newly elected chapter presidents to build the skills they need to lead their chapter effectively. This year's PresX will feature new experiences both inside and outside the camp, including an off-site adventure plus a group stop at Buc-ee's! If you're a new President, be sure to mark your calendar for January 7th-10th and register as soon as possible when registration opens on November 11th!
When & Where:
January 7-10, 2027
Camp T Bar M - New Braunfels, TX
Register by Friday, Dec. 11, 2026
Registration opens on November 11 through MyDelt and closes on December 11.
Basic Info:
All incoming chapter presidents are expected to attend PresX. There is no registration fee, and the Fraternity will cover travel costs (flights or reimbursement for local mileage), food and lodging for the weekend.

PresX will be a stand-alone experience in 2027 and will no longer run alongside COMPASS + LeaderShape. COMPASS + LeaderShape will take place separately at another location around the same time, so chapter presidents attending PresX should plan specifically for the PresX experience.
