Calling all who love The Ohio State University and Buckeye Football!!! Join us for a tailgate party you won't want to miss! We will be showing incoming freshmen from the Philly area how great OSU is by hosting a BBQ/picnic in the park before they move into the dorms! The freshmen can all come and get to know one another before heading out to Columbus, and the alumni and friends of OSU in the area can instill in these new students our passion for Ohio State! There will be hot dogs and hamburgers, side dishes, desserts, Buckeye music, Buckeye gifts for the freshmen, and lots and lots of Buckeye fun!! The cost is $10 for members and $15 for non-members, but you can pay your membership dues that day to receive the discounted admission rate. Freshmen get in for free!
