HISTORY
Island Party is a BYX tradition dating back to 1985, here at Texas A&M BYX, we celebrate brotherhood, unity, and the Gospel by putting on an outdoor music festival that unites our community and raises money for a good cause. Island Party’s music festival format dates back to 1994!
Beta Upsilon Chi, a National Christian Fraternity, exists for the purpose of establishing brotherhood and unity among college men based on the common bond of Jesus Christ. We are a lifelong brotherhood of committed Christian men seeking the bonds of brotherhood and unity in Christ through the avenue of a social fraternity on a college campus.

TEXAS A&M BYX
OUR
MISSION
As the brotherhood behind Island Party, BYX brothers have their eyes fixed on one thing. The love of Jesus Christ that has forgiven our sin and unified us with God now and for eternity.
The dedication to service, community, and excellence that marks Island Party reflects that of the Kingdom of God. Our hope is that those who encounter Texas A&M BYX Island Party get a glimpse of The Living God.
THE GOSPEL
MATHEW 5:14-16
"You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."
THE BRIDGE
The Bridge: "Our mission is to build relationships within the community by providing food, sharing the hope in Christ, and recognizing the inherent value of every person."
“We want to give more than just food to those in need. We want to affirm, encourage, and love everyone who visits our pantry-”
