Ohio Stadium welcomed more than 730 guests May 22 for the Central Ohio region’s Make-A-Wish Foundation gala. Guests bid on auction packages, pledged cash donations and enjoyed a performance by country musicians and Columbus natives Rascal Flatts. The night raised $760,000 to grant the wishes of local children with life-threatening medical conditions. Tickets were $500.
