Summer 2013
Based on the classic novel of French playwright
and poet Victor Hugo, Les Miserables is
celebrating its 25th anniversary this year and our
club got tickets to see it!
Theater-goers dined at deVere’s Irish Pub before
heading over to the show on June 6th. Our group
of local Buckeyes attended the production of Les
Miserables at the Sacramento Community
Theater. Aside from the well-loved story of Jean
Valjean, Eponine, Fantine, Cosette, and Javert,
Les Miserables also boasts of an extraordinary
musical score that includes songs like “Do You
Hear the People Sing”, “I Dreamed a Dream”, and
“On My Own”. It was truly amazing and an
experience each one of us will remember for
years to come. Thank you to everyone who
participated!

On Sunday, June 2, 2013
at William Pond Park in
Carmichael, many of the
schools
from
the
B1G
conference gathered for an
amazing picnic. Illinois Club
President
Bob
Simon
organized the event with
clubs making sure the grills
were fired up and ready to
go. Everyone brought a side
dish or dessert to share.
There were plenty of food
and delicious treats made
from
traditional
Midwest
recipes to enjoy.
If so, buy from the store
that gives a hefty sum
back to our club.
College Traditions
(www.collegetraditions.com,
800-628-4678)
has a program where the
Sacramento Valley club
receives 15% of your
total bill just for shopping
with them.
The Corn Hole Tournament
was the entertainment for
the afternoon. Teams were
created
by
schools
represented. A member of
Michigan’s club directed the
competition. Ohio State had a
few teams in the event and
had a wonderful time. next
year Sac Valley Bucks need
to have more skilled players
and teams to participate. It
was fun for all! GO BUCKS!!
As part of its growth and
re-branding, the B1G
conference is asking that
all affiliate groups refer to
the league as “B1G” in all
official communications,
rather than using Big Ten.
