UPCOMING EVENTS

· Sunday, August 8: Annual Club Summer Picnic

The Club’s annual picnic is scheduled for August 8 at Falls Lake Rollingview Community Building. The picnic has been a lot of fun over the years. Members and Buckeye faithful are cordially invited to attend. It is also time to renew your memberships in the local club if you have not done so. A meeting of the membership will be held at the same time, so bring your ideas and join us at the lake.

The Community Building at Falls Lake is air conditioned and is adjacent to the beachfront and boat ramp. Come early or stay late to soak up some sun and enjoy the relaxing setting by the lake.

· Saturday, December 4: OSU Alumni to Participate in the Jingle Bell 5K Run for Arthritis

Buckeyes, here's your chance to pay forward in our community. The club will be participating in the Jingle Bell 5k Run/Walk to raise money for the Arthritis Foundation. This event will be at 10:30 am on Saturday, December 4 in Raleigh.

Our club is offering three opportunities to participate. Participation is open to alumni, family members, and friends.

· As a volunteer. We need eight (8) individuals to staff the pre-registration table the morning of the event. These individuals will hand out packets to race participants. Imagine the opportunity to "show them Ohio is here" as all eight of us wear our finest scarlet and grey clothing to greet all the runners and walkers that day.

· As a participant. We will have a team of runners and walkers participating in the event that day. Sign up to be on the Buckeye team, run or walk the course in your best gameday apparel! Then, gain sponsors to raise money on behalf of the Arthritis Foundation.

· As a donor. Make a contribution on behalf of an individual team member or the team in general. Help our Buckeye team reach our fundraising goal!

Please join us in contributing to our community! Please contact Jerry Canterbury at jerrylcanterbury@yahoo.com or 919-710-3559. Participants and donors can also join the team via the web at:
