History
On December 6, 1966, five (5) schools met at Millers Village Inn in Gahanna to discuss the formation of a new athletic conference and develop a proposed conference constitution. The following Principals and Athletic Directors were in attendance:
- Gahanna Lincoln: Ben Webb and Byron Prushing
- Reynoldsburg: Joe Endry and Bill Starner
- Westerville: Dana Aukerman and Walt Bahorek
- Whitehall: Bob Strohm and Ray Schick
- Worthington: Lou Koloze and Dick West
The purpose was to approve the proposed constitution for the new league. Joe Endry, Acting Chairman of the group, asked for suggestions for a name for the new league. Several suggestions were made and the name Ohio Capital Conference was unanimously chosen.
Chairman Endry called for a discussion of the proposed constitution of the Ohio Capital Conference. After a review and discussion. the Schools’ representatives stated that they were in agreement and were ready to sign the document. Copies of the constitution were signed and the new constitution became a reality.
