Dam Good Connections - Seattle

Each year, we get 365 new days to build connections. And there's no better way to do that than with Beaver Nation.

The OSU Alumni Association’s Dam Good Connections events are back due to popular demand, so be there for a dam good time as we bring together Beaver alumni, students, parents and friends in your area!

With nearly 25,000 Oregon Staters in Washington — a good part of them in the Seattle metro area — this is an incredible chance to grow your professional network or find Beaver friends to catch a game with or explore new hobbies.

We are excited to have College of Health alumnus David Stricklin, M.S. ’06, the Seattle Seahawks head athletic trainer, joining us for a discussion on leadership, teamwork and athletic training. And get your cameras ready: The event will take place at Ivar's Salmon House, nestled along the picturesque shores of Lake Union.
