wolfe center for alumni, parents, & friends
Connections. Community. Cleveland.
Join fellow Oilers across Northeast Ohio for four evenings of great company, memorable venues, and the enduring spirit of the University of Findlay. No agenda — just good people and good times.
From a lively taco bar in the Gateway District to craft cocktails at a retro duckpin bowling alley, a waterfront dinner on the Cuyahoga, and a coastal-inspired oyster bar in the Flats. Each gathering is designed to bring the best of Cleveland together with the best of Findlay.

Kick off the year with the energy of Cleveland's Gateway District. Barrio's vibrant, industrial-chic space sets the perfect scene for catching up with fellow Oilers over handcrafted tacos and a seriously impressive tequila list.
Nestled in the heart of Ohio City, Pins Mechanical is part bar, part arcade, part nostalgia trip. Think 12 duckpin bowling lanes, classic pinball machines, and cocktails that hit the mark every time.
There's no better backdrop for a fall evening than Merwin's Wharf on the Cuyahoga River. This Cleveland Metroparks gem offers fresh, locally-sourced cuisine and sweeping riverfront views — peak autumn in the heart of the city.
End the year on a high note at one of Cleveland's most celebrated waterfront restaurants. Alley Cat brings New England coastal charm to the banks of the Cuyahoga — the perfect antidote to a January evening.
