                          THE PARKSTONE ADVANTAGE FUND
 
                     Supplement dated December 28, 1998 to
                      Prospectus dated September 18, 1998
 
THIS SUPPLEMENT PROVIDES NEW AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION BEYOND THAT CONTAINED IN
THE PROSPECTUS AND SHOULD BE RETAINED AND READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE
PROSPECTUS.
 
1.  Change in Adviser. Effective December 1, 1998, Gulfstream Global Investors,
    Ltd. is no longer serving as sub-investment adviser to the Parkstone
    International Discovery Fund. National City Investment Management Company
    will manage this Fund under the terms of the existing investment advisory
    agreement.
 
2.  Change in Investment Policies to the International Discovery Fund. At a
    meeting on November 19, 1998, the Board of Trustees of the Parkstone
    Advantage Fund approved a change in investment policy for the Parkstone
    Advantage International Discovery Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund will seek to
    achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market
    conditions, at least 80% of its total assets in equity securities of foreign
    issuers. The Fund's assets normally will be invested in the securities of
    issuers located in at least three foreign countries. Foreign investments
    also may include debt obligations issued or guaranteed by foreign
    governments or their agencies, authorities, instrumentalities or political
    subdivisions, including a foreign state, province or municipality. The Fund
    does not presently intend to invest in common stock of domestic companies.
 
   The Fund will invest primarily in equity securities, including common and
   preferred stocks, rights, warrants, securities convertible into common stocks
   and American Depository Receipts ("ADRs") of companies included in the Morgan
   Stanley Capital International Europe, Australia, Far East ("EAFE") Index, a
   broadly diversified international index consisting of more than 1,000 equity
   securities of companies located in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Denmark,
   Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the
   Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and
   the United Kingdom. The Fund, however, will not be an "index" fund, and is
   neither sponsored by nor affiliated with Morgan Stanley Capital
   International. The Fund will not presently make investments in markets where,
   in the judgement of the adviser, property rights are not defined and
   supported by adequate legal infrastructure. More than 25% of the Fund's
   assets may be invested in the securities of issuers located in the same
   country.
 
              PLEASE RETAIN THIS SUPPLEMENT FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
