Join us for a screening of Join or Die, which explores the crucial role clubs and civic organizations play in uniting Americans, and connect with local groups to be part of the solution.
Attendees will have the chance to watch the powerful documentary based on the groundbreaking research of Ohioan Robert Putnam, author of Bowling Alone. After learning about mending and strengthening the social fabric of our state and nation, engage in the discussion with local leaders and talk to local clubs who are seeking new members. Presented in partnership with Leadership Ohio and funded in part by the America 250-Ohio Commission.
