Greetings fellow Boilermakers~
 
The holiday season will soon be upon us. In the spirit of holiday giving, the Purdue Club of Omaha is once again sponsoring a virtual food drive to benefit the Food Bank for the Heartland.

I hope everyone can “get on board” to ensure that all of those in need can enjoy a happy holiday.
 
Thank you and best wishes for a wonderful holiday season. Boiler Up!

Let’s get the new season going! Please join us (and bring anyone else you’d like) to see Purdue take on Notre Dame on Saturday, 9/8 at 2:30PM.

We will be at “Buffalo Wings & Rings” (12247 “L” St.) in the “L Street Marketplace” (that’s on the north side of “L”).

If you can join us, please let us know (and how many in your party) for planning purposes. We hope to see you there!

Boiler Up!

Check out some photos from the pep rallys at the Old Mattress Factory.  Just click on the “Photo Gallery” link (there are two sets – one for each day).

FYI, Purdue’s baseball team is off to a great start this year. They will be coming to Lincoln for a 3-game series at Hawks Field, Fri/Sat/Sun (Apr. 20-22).

I’d like to purchase a group of tickets to sit together at the Saturday game – April 21 at 2PM. Tickets for field-level seating (I’d like to get a block behind Purdue’s dugout on the first-base side) are $11 each, so if you’d like tickets, please email me at jimschultze@cox.net with the number that you’d like to purchase, so I can get a total count.

Please remember that by reserving tickets, you will be committing to purchasing these (so we can get a block together), since the Alumni Club will need to purchase them in advance and you will be reimbursing.

Please respond soon – deadline for feedback is Saturday, March 24 at 6PM, so that I can place the order.

Let’s back our Boilers and welcome them to Nebraska! We’ll have the club banner out there and we’ll let them know we’re supporting them. For them being so far from home, it will mean a lot to them.

I hope to see you there!

Jim Schultze
Club president
