BUCKEYES IN PARADISE GALA
Add
Saturday, February 12, 2011 to your "Must Attend" calendar. That is the night of the next annual Buckeyes
in Paradise Gala. The event will be held at the Naples Hilton from 6:00 - 10:00 PM and includes special guests,
fundraising auctions and raffles, special guests and lots of fun. Archie Griffin will be in attendance
and is the Honorary Chair for the Gala. This event raises funds to support Collier County honor students at The
Ohio State University. The Club typically awards $15,000 of scholarships each year for deserving students. This
year the Club will announce special recognitions of persons involved in past and current scholarship activities. Watch
for more details for this special recognition evening.
Thank you
to all of those who attended Naples Buckeyes' First Annual Scholarship Gala at Imperial Golf Club to benefit our scholarship
fund. Through your generosity, support, and contributions we were able to raise over $20,000 to support our
mission of sending Collier County honors students to The Ohio State University.
A night of cocktails, dinner, and live entertainment featuring The Manhattan Connection was enjoyed by all. The silent auction was a big hit with something for everyone ranging from restaurant gift
certificates to gift baskets, sports memorabilia and hotel packages! Special guest Earle Bruce joined us to share stories
of his experience coaching football at The Ohio State University.
