Football Thursday Lunch – November
November 2, 2023 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
Join fellow Tiger fans to discuss the current football season. Lunch and discussion will be Thursday, November 2, 12:00pm – 1:00pm at Allen Martin’s office, 499 South Capitol Street, SW, Suite 600, Washington DC. Lunch will be served. Registration is $10 for Club members; $25 for non-members. Guest speaker, former player, Landon Walker ’11, the NASCAR Tiger, will join us to discuss Clemson Football. Please register if you plan to attend.
Walker followed NASCAR as a youth, but he was all about playing football. He excelled in high school, then accepted a scholarship to play for Head Coach Tommy Bowden at Clemson. He entered in January 2007, one of four Tigers who entered a semester early, an unusual occurrence in those days.
Walker redshirted the 2007 season, but he was ready as a starter at left offensive tackle under Assistant Coach Brad Scott in 2008. He went on to start 49 of 53 games and played 3,131 snaps, third most in Tiger history, from 2008-11. He earned his degree on Aug. 13, 2011, then played his final year of eligibility in the fall of 2011.
Walker was one of the veterans on the 2011 team that helped Dabo Swinney and the Tigers end 20 years of frustration when they won the ACC title.

Wreaths Out
January 11 @ 8:00 am – 11:00 am
By January, the holiday spirit has lessened and the weather is colder. The 250,000+ holiday wreaths that were placed at Arlington National Cemetery in December are ready to be removed. Coordinated by Wreaths Across America, this is an often overlooked volunteer opportunity. Join the Clemson Club to help retrieve/remove wreaths as we honor veterans, their service and their final resting place.
This volunteer opportunity is open to everyone and many hands are needed to help!
Mom's Care Package Party - VA
Mom's Care Package Party - VA
January 30 @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm
Hosted by Angie Paolozzi P’24 & Helen Bath P’23 at Angie’s home in Vienna, Virginia.
We would love to have you join us for a very casual evening of Clemson camaraderie! We’ll enjoy hors d’oeuvres and beverages, meet some great local Clemson moms, and assemble care packages for our Clemson students in time for a Valentine’s Day surprise.
Here’s how it works: Once we have a confirmed guest count, each person is asked to bring one item to contribute to the care packages. For example, if we have 15 people joining, then you would bring 15 of one item (Rice Krispies treats, lip balm, ramen noodles, fuzzy socks … you get the idea!) and at the end of the night, you’ll walk away with a box full of goodies that you can mail to your Clemson student(s).
Sounds like fun,right?!
