Opening Day on the Square

GBC is partnering up with Channel 12 to host an all day party on Fountain Square for the Reds Opening day, Monday April 5th. From the Square, you can watch the traditional Findlay Market Opening Day Parade pass by. If you don't have tickets to the game, stay to watch the Reds play the St. Louis Cardinals at 1:10pm on the Fountain Square video screen. Come celebrate this Cincinnati tradition on the Square with live music, food, and Christian Moerlein beer.

We are looking for volunteers!  Are you available to help out for a few hours?  Sell food, beverages, or such... follow the link below to sign up to help.  Thank you!  If you cannot volunteer, we hope you will swing by to watch the game or the music afterwards.

Volunteer for Opening Day on the Square

Give Back at the Theater:

This past Saturday , GBC went to the theater and had a lovely time.  More than 50 members of Give Back Cincinnati got together at the Aronoff to enjoy "The 39 Steps".  Everyone had a splendid time experiencing a unique and witty show, while able to spend some time with fellow young professionals.  The social afterwards was at "FB's" and we are grateful for their efforts in opening their doors early for us.  many thanks to the social committee as they planned a wonderful event.  You may check out our pictures on our website as well.

Also, we are always looking for new ideas for our calendar of events.  If you have an idea about where we could go next year for our evening with the arts, please do not hesitate to email our social director or the president.  Thank you, your ideas and efforts make this group what it is.

Community Immersion - Walnut Hills

A Community Immersion event is a way to intimately get to know a community that you might not yet have truly experienced, but needs our attention.  On April 10th, we will be exploring the community of Walnut Hills.  As we discussed in the Sounding Sessions on February 23rd and 24th, Walnut Hills is currently undergoing a slow and steady process of community revitalization.  Through this community immersion, we will dig deeper into the businesses and organizations that line the streets of Walnut Hills.  We will interact with members of the neighborhood and for an hour or so, we will get our hands dirty while directly helping with a community project.  If you were, or were not able to join us for our Sounding Sessions on community revitalization, this event would be the perfect opportunity to witness revitalization efforts first hand.  We hope you can join us!
 

Leave Saturday, April 10th from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM open on your calendar.  More details and registration to open up as we get closer to the event.  In the meantime, check out Walnut Hills @ www.walnuthills.us & www.whbizassn.org

 

 On the Horizon....

Blazing Trails -  April 24th:    Join us in Devou Park (Covington/Ludlow KY) for a day of blazing mountain bike & hiking trails through the woods.  This is a day of physically demanding work out in the wilderness followed by a hearty lunch and beverages.  Life is good...

Paint the Town -  June 12th:    Join us for another great and awe-inspiring event.  We will be in Evanston & Avondale this year and we are extremely excited as the communities have already been so accommodating and helpful

Kids' Olympics -  July 17th:    You still have that Olympic fever? Couldn't quite make it to Canada recently? Join us for our own (and better!!) Olympics with local children.  Stay tuned for details.

Give Back Cincinnati Young Executives' Summary:

Next week:

Friday: Give Back Beyond Romania Fundraiser - 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM


 

 

 

GBC at the theater was a chance for us to get together without paint all over ourselves.  A chance to experience the Arts and a time for us to enjoy the friendships that we have made and are making.  Hopefully, if you did not join us this year, we will see you there next year.  The location and the event are being worked on now so if you have any input we would love to hear from you. Thanks!
