2017 Chicago YSA Field Day:
Volunteer Opportunity!
Registration Deadline: May 15th
Are you looking for a fun volunteer opportunity? Would you enjoy leading and playing field day games with children from local Chicago elementary schools? Meet other local #Buckeyealum as we represent #OhioState at the 6th Annual Chicago YSA Field Day event!
In cooperation with all 14 Big Ten alumni associations of the greater#Chicago area, Chicago Youth Sports Alliance is sponsoring a one-day sports and fitness experience for 4th-6th graders from underserved communities in Chicago. Over 350 students from 14 local elementary schools will attend the event.
The students will be paired with an alumni group for the day and will rotate through 14 different activity stations run by the alumni associations. The children will have the opportunity to participate in athletic based games, hear from a special guest speaker, and gain exposure to the #BigTen universities.
As a volunteer, you will help run the water balloon toss, motivate and encourage the students, and make a positive impact on the youth of Chicago!
Volunteers will receive a 2017 Chicago YSA Field Day t-shirt in our school’s colors, so make sure to register by May 15 and select your t-shirt size.

Festa Italiana 2017
August 18, 2017, 5:00pm - August 20, 2017, 10:00pm
Festa Italiana will fill your senses with la dolce vita Italy and meatballs. The 12th annual Festa Italiana stretches along Taylor Street between Ashland Avenue and Racine Street. Longtime family-owned restaurants and neighborhood newcomers will serve up some of the best food in the city. Italian and Italian-American singers will perform American and Italian classics. An Italian dance ensemble will perform and teach the tarantella, a well-loved Italian folk dance performed at Italian weddings. Fest-goers will have the opportunity to play Italian card games, compete in contests to see who can consume the most meatballs and cannoli (of course, not at the same time!), and buy Italian-themed art, and other merchandises.
