Go Bucks! Luncheon set for Nov. 20 Come and join us for the annual GO BUCKS! Luncheon in preparation of the BIG football game on Saturday, Nov. 29! This luncheon will be held on Thursday, Nov. 20. We are excited to have Dimitrious Stanley as our speaker to share his insights and expertise on the Buckeyes, past and present. Dimitrious is a long-time resident of Columbus, Ohio. Dimitrious played for Thomas Worthington High School and then The Ohio State University from 1993-1997. It was in 1997 that he set a school record for the longest yard touchdown as he ran a touchdown
72 yards in the 1997 Rose Bowl. He then went on to play for the Miami Dolphins and in the Canadian Football League. After Dimitrious returned to Columbus, he used his quick wit and knowledge of the game to become the city’s favorite Saturday sportscaster on ABC6 and 97.1 The Fan. He is well known for his sense of humor and definitely his fashionable suits. Credit Union of Ohio and Daruma Steakhouse and Sushi will be sponsoring this luncheon.
