Upcoming Alumni Events- Updated 9/10/09

To continue one of our “new” alumni traditions begun two years ago, we will have our Annual Alumni Homecoming Tailgate for 3 hours before and 2 hours after the Minnesota game on Homecoming Saturday, October 24th. The location is the same as before in the Northwest Garage (A) on the rooftop or one floor below if it rains. The Garage is actually the second one back from Tuttle Park Drive and the entrance is on Ives Drive, which is just to the northeast of the stadium. The Garage in front is called Tuttle Park Garage. The Northwest garage is just behind the Tuttle Garage. For brothers without tickets, the Chapter House will be open (with refreshments) to watch the game on the big screen TV.

On Sunday October 25, 11am, we will hold the annual meeting and election of officers for the Alumni Corporation and the Ohio Gamma Foundation. Coffee and donuts will be served at the House starting at 10am. Please plan to join us if you are in town as all alumni are eligible to vote at the annual meetings.

View the Penn State-OSU away game on Nov. 7, 2009. We will be gathering at Roosters, 3370 Olengtangy River Road with alumni, undergraduates and friends. There is no charge for this event, just pay for your own food and beverages. We have a room reserved with four TV's. Not sure when the game will begin but we will be there about one hour before, during and maybe afterwards to celebrate a victory. Should be a great time to see some old friends, meet some undergrad Brothers and see the game. If you are planning on coming, please email Mike Lockwood at MLgobucks@roadrunner.com or call him at 330-273-4344 so that we can give the restaurant a count. Hope to see you there and Go Bucks!!

The next time you get the chance to visit the Chapter House, be sure to take a look at the new “Alumni Corner”. There you will find a plaque acknowledging all the donors who have contributed at the Circle of Brotherhood level ($2500+), and the Bob Barnett Alumni Service Award plaque. The undergrads are always glad to show you around anytime you are in town. Just ring the doorbell and someone will give you a tour!

The Foundation and the Alumni Corporation board members look forward to seeing you at an event soon.
