2010 SPRING EVENT RECAP

Event Date:  5/13/10

 

     The Ohio State Alumni Club of Greater Kansas City was honored  to have Archie Griffin and Kimberly Lowe as its special guests to the 2010 Spring Event.  Buckeyes from the Kansas City area got a chance to meet and talk with Archie,  get a few pictures, and autographs.

     Following a BBQ dinner the group settled in to hear Archie talk about his role as President and CEO of the Alumni Association, his playing days at OSU, and the love and guidance of his father and of his college football coach, Woody Hayes.
     Archie also talked aboutCoach Hayes' philosophy of 'Pay It Forward', and how we can all do that in various ways in our every day life and encouraged each of us to do so.  He also talked about the importance of hard work, dedication, perseverance and faith.
    It was a very special evening with a remarkable individual whose  contributions to the Ohio State University were only beginning by the time he won the first of his two Heisman Trophies.

      We have begun posting pictures on our Photos Page and encourage any of you who have photos that you would like to share to send them to paul@kcbucks.org and we will get those posted as soon as possible.  We are also working on editing a video which we will also be posting very soon.
