OHIO鈥檚 Annual Alden Open Continues as a Dads Weekend Tradition

The annual Alden Open mini-golf course in Alden Library has become a staple event during Dads Weekend and will continue this year on Nov. 2 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Participants can choose to play nine holes for $5 or 18 holes for $10.

Every year, the design of the course changes, making it the perfect place for students, faculty and their families to continue to come back to play. Additionally, the event gives bragging rights that can last for the whole weekend, while also showing off the Library to family and friends.

All of the money raised at the event will go toward the Student Research and Creative Activity Expo, held on April 9, 2020. For the past 15 years, the Expo has allowed hundreds of undergraduate, graduate and medical students to present their original work in the Convocation Center. In previous years, projects have included documentary filmmaking, robotic lawn mowers and innovative theater costumes, as well as presentations on the latest findings in medicine, education and sciences.

鈥淲e鈥檙e a very competitive family, so we like seeing who鈥檚 going to win the game, who likes to cheat and stuff like that,鈥 said Mark Nelson, who teased his daughter Kelsey Nelson at the 2018 Alden Open.
