Did You Visit the Oklahoma Community Cares Booth @ The Bash?
Oklahoma Community Cares is the grant program that gives back to our local communities. To help the committee’s fund raising efforts, Oklahoma Community Cares committee members sold raffle tickets for one lucky winner to take home a pair of OSU vs. OU football tickets.
Thank you to all who donated to Oklahoma Community Cares during the 2023 Bash! The fundraiser was successful and the Member winning the Nov. 4th, 2023 OSU Football tickets was quite excited to take home the pair of tickets!
