Beaver Dam Executive Board
In recent years, the Beaver Dam has created and Executive Board to act as a link between the Athletic Department and the Beaver Dam members. This four to five member board is responsible for creating scouting reports for each home game, creating and planning new events for the Beaver Dam and its members, and acting as a voice for the Beaver Dam members. Any beaver Dam member can be a part of the board; if you are interested in applying watch out for information about the Beaver Dam this fall. If you are an intern for OSU sports marketing, you have the chance of running the Beaver Dam, and getting students involved in events.
How to Join
Many students are confused at just how they join the Beaver Dam. The Executive Board puts on events to promote the Dam and sign up new members, however many miss these oppurtunities. Anyone can sign up by going to the Marketing Office in Gill (open until 5pm, Mon-Fri) and filling out a form. You can charge the $15 to your student account and receive your t-shirt on the spot.
