Thank you for taking the time to visit the Stormy Petrel Club’s site. I am so proud to be leading OUr Stormy Petrels. We strive to be one of the finest NCAA Division
III athletic departments in the country. The financial commitment from our alumni, friends and fans will allow the department of athletics to enhance the scholarathlete experience, which will also allow us to recruit quality individuals and compete at a higher level. This support also strengthens the push for more health and wellness activities that will engage the entire campus and community.
With yOUr assistance, OUr varsity programs can become much more competitive.
Our intramural program is thriving on campus; however there is a palpable buzz for improvement in our health and wellness programs.
In the classroom and on the playing fields, OUr scholar-athletes strive to outwork and outplay the competition, but they need yOUr help. Your gift to the Stormy
Petrel Club will keep momentum moving in the quest to build championship-caliber varsity athletics and broad participation in wellness and recreation activities for our students.
Please consider making a contribution to the Stormy Petrel Club to ensure our continued success on the court, on the course, on the track and on the field, but most of all in the classroom and in our efforts to prepare these young men and women for life beyond Oglethorpe.
While everyone involved with Oglethorpe athletics works tirelessly to succeed, it is the financial investments made by OUr alumni and friends throughout the country that will push us to reach such great heights. With your support, we are able to keep pace with our ever-increasing costs, and we are able to provide the best possible collegiate experience for our scholar-athletes.
Let’ s Get Stormy!

The Stormy Petrel Club is the primary fundraising arm of Oglethorpe University
Athletics. The opportunity for today’s scholar-athletes to put on the Oglethorpe uniform exists because of Stormy Petrel supporters like you believe in the Stormy

Stormy Petrel scholar-athletes need your support to continue to compete at the highest level possible. At a time when the cost of competing at the Division-III level is dramatically escalating, it is imperative that the Stormy Petrel Club responds to the funding challenge.
The Stormy Petrel Club is the only organization dedicated to raising funds for athletics at Oglethorpe University.
