LUNCH FOR THE OSU POLICE DEPT

On Wednesday, October 2, our alumni club will show appreciation for the OSU Police Dept by serving lunch for both shifts of officers as well as their administrative staff. This is a new community service project for our club, and we hope you can come participate. 
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 afterwards. 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 some people to serve then help clean up from 3 to 5:00 pm
Sign up to participate by emailing us (OSUAlumniFranklinCounty@yahoo.com) with your name, phone # and email address, and which shift you’re available for.
