CORVALLIS – Oregon State University Athletics is bringing the annual Beaver State Tour to fans and donors with six free virtual events. The events are hosted by the “Voice of the Beavers” Mike Parker and feature every OSU head coach throughout the schedule.
“This is a unique format that provides opportunities for all of Beaver Nation, regardless of location, to participate from the comforts of their homes in a setting that promotes interaction,” Vice President and Director of Athletics Scott Barnes said. “This is a great chance for Beaver Nation to get to know our coaches, how our student-athletes are coping in today’s world, and what to expect from our teams.”
Registration is required to participate in each of the Zoom webinars (learn to use Zoom) which begins May 7 with Barnes and Head Football Coach Jonathan Smith. All six webinars are 5-6 p.m. Once registered, participants will get an email confirmation. Beaver Nation is encouraged to ask questions of the guests through the registration portal or at sports.marketing@oregonstate.edu before the start of each event.
