Baseball Launches Fundraising Effort
The Oregon State Baseball program, with the backing of the Oregon State Baseball Alumni Association, the Our Beaver Nation office and the OSU Foundation, is launching a crowd-funding campaign in an effort to raise $75,000 for the construction of a players lounge.
This state-of-the-art lounge will give our student-athletes what they need to not only bond as a team, but also prepare for success on the field and in the classroom. It will be a place they can call their own, a home base of sorts.
The addition of a players lounge is the next step in the evolution of Goss Stadium at Coleman Field, following the construction of the Jacoby Ellsbury Locker Room, the Darwin Barney Alumni Lounge, and the creation of Banners.
This effort will not be successful because of the actions of a few, it will be successful because of the dedication of a nation. It will take a nation of Oregon State Baseball Alumni who gave everything they had to bring not one, but TWO NATIONAL TITLES home and moved on from this program men prepared to have success on the field and in life. It will take the efforts of a ravenous and loyal fan base, one that makes Goss Stadium the most intimidating stadium in country.
Join the team and give to create.osufoundation.org/4US4EVER. As in the game of baseball, there is no amount of effort that is too small. The challenge is on us to work together, as Beaver Nation always has, to reach this incredible goal and provide for our student-athletes now and into tomorrow.
What does it mean to you to be a part of Oregon State Baseball? From the first time you put on the uniform to the first step onto Coleman Field, you are part of a brotherhood, a family that stays with you for the rest of your life. When you’re in a family you take care of one another, making sure the next generation has opportunities and experiences built on the hard work of those that have come before them.
Oregon State Baseball is not just four years of your life. It is something that is FOR US FOREVER!
