To sustain and expand the legacy of the OSU Judging Program we are aiming to "fill the hat" to replace and update the vans and transportation for our Judging Teams. This travel support will enable the purchase of new 15-passenger vans and continued maintenance to transport students to workouts and contests across the country. These vans are essential to the program's operations, logging more than 20,000 miles annually. Reliable transportation allows the program to reduce costs, freeing up resources to award additional student scholarships and cover additional travel expenses for students. A commitment to this initiative is a commitment to the future. Your support will directly impact students' ability to compete, learn, and grow-while also helping OSU maintain its tradition of excellence. We invite you to join us in driving the next century of success for the OSU Judging Teams by helping us fill the hat. You can add cash to the Cowboy Hat in-person, provide a gift online with item 199 or at an additional donation at checkout this evening, just mention Judging Van Support.
