Join the OSU Alumni Club of Franklin County for our first Professional Development event, an interactive workshop designed to help you transform your LinkedIn presence from ordinary to unforgettable!
From Scarlet to Gray to Career Ready: Mastering LinkedIn
Wednesday, January 28, 5:30 – 7:30 pm, at the Longaberger Alumni House
Session Description: Your LinkedIn profile is more than a resume; it’s your digital first impression. As alumni of The Ohio State University, you’re entering a competitive professional landscape where standing out online can open doors to opportunities, connections, and career growth.

You’ll learn how to:

• Craft a headline and summary that grabs attention and showcases your Buckeye story
• Highlight experiences and skills in ways that resonate with recruiters and peers
• Use visuals, recommendations, and networking strategies to build credibility
• Position yourself as a thought leader and active member of the OSU alumni community

Whether you’re job searching, exploring new industries, or simply strengthening your professional brand, this session will give you practical tools and insider tips to make LinkedIn work for you.

Don’t just be on LinkedIn, be seen, be remembered, and be connected!

A light dinner will be provided.  To attend, sign up here:

They are currently ranked #2 and will be playing against another powerhouse, Minnesota Duluth, that afternoon.

We will organize a pre-game lunch at The O on Lane, a family-friendly pub just a short walk from the Ice Rink. So bring the whole gang!  Last year’s game was sold out!

The party will be at the Longaberger Alumni House at 2200 Olentangy River Road. Dinner and desserts will be served.  Don’t forget to bring a wrapped gift to participate in the gift exchange!  It can be something funny or cute that you find in your house, or something holiday-related or Buckeye-themed — no need to spend a lot of money.  

This year we are charging a small fee to attend, as a fundraiser for our Scholarship Fund.

Deadline to sign up is Friday Dec 5.  Questions?  Contact Leyla at 614-893-0559 or us at OSUAlumniFranklinCounty@yahoo.com.

Both nights will begin at 6:30 pm. The chef will create a special menu for us, to pair with a variety of wines. The same menu will be served at both events, so you can choose which night is most convenient for you!We hope by offering two dates, we’ll be able to have more people join us.  But there is still limited seating available for each evening, so you will need to get your reservation in early! The Bistro will provide an amazing 4-course dinner, with 4 wines paired to complement 

each serving. You’ll even be able to order bottles of the wines you enjoy right after dinner! Plan to arrive by 6 pm so you have time to find parking and find a seat before dinner.  Parking is available behind the building (very limited), or on nearby streets, or most availability across the street in the Lane Ave Shopping Center.

We are joining forces once again with our friends in the Delaware County OSU Alumni club to bring you our annual game watch party, this year for the OSU v.Wisconsin game on October 18.  Kickoff time is now scheduled for 3:30 pm, so the party will begin at 3:00.  Plan to get there early for a good seat!

We’ll have games and door prizes, the food is good and the company (Buckeye fans) is even better!   The location is the same as last year:  Wings & Rings, 8661 Columbus Pike (Route 23 about 3 miles north of the 270 outerbelt), in Lewis Center.  It is a family friendly place, so bring the whole gang!

There’s no charge to attend, but we do need a headcount in advance, so we know how many seats to reserve.  You can go to the Delaware club’s website to register — you don’t need to log in, you can use the “Guest Checkout.”

Thursday October 23, we’re doing a fun project for a good cause!

Come help us make Buckeye necklaces for patients at OSU Hospitals!  We will provide all the materials (buckeyes, beads, strings, etc).  You get to string them together and make someone happy!  We will meet at the Longaberger Alumni House at 6 pm on October 23, and spend an hour putting these little treasures together.  Then we’ll treat you out for dinner afterwards!

If you have questions, please contact Kim Moore at kimberkm18@gmail.com  or at 614-369-2712.  To join us, email us at OSUAlumniFranklinCounty@yahoo.com with your phone number and email address (so we can send you a reminder a few days before the event).  We just need to know how many people to plan for.  

Thanks for helping us making fellow Buckeyes smile!

On Thursday, Oct. 2, our alumni club will show appreciation for the OSU Police Department by serving lunch for all the officers as well as their administrative staff.

We’ll be serving a “Tailgate” style lunch, so we need a few folks to help set it up, and a few to clean up after. Join us for this great opportunity to give back to those who serve and protect the students and staff of our great campus! 

We’ll have two shifts: we need some people to help set-up and serve from 12:30 to 3 pm, and people to serve then help clean up from 2:30 to 5 pm.   Sign up to help by sending your name & phone number to OSUAlumniFranklinCounty@yahoo.com and say which shift you’re available for. Come help us say “Thank You!” to these hard-working individuals!
