The event of the year for fans of Chicago, youth, and wrestling! The vibe is one of community and celebration, bringing together coaches, wrestlers and our generous supporters.

You'll find a well-curated mix of live and silent auction items during our program, with a focus on hard-to-get items, memorable experiences, and travel opportunities.
It's a FUNDraiser, after all! About midway through the evening, we invite donors to "raise a paddle" at various giving levels. All proceeds support Chicago youth.
Our format is "lively cocktail party" with plenty of food and drink. No set tables means lots of mingling and fun! We sell individual tickets instead of "tables of ten" to accommodate groups of all sizes. Tickets go on sale March 15.

We have four levels of sponsorship: Title, Gold, Silver and Copper, all with valuable benefits including tickets to the event, recognition at the Gala, and acknowledgement on social media.
