To donate, AFTER you've registered with a ticket purchase (for headcount), select the "Donation" type. We've had a handful of wrestlers make generous donations already - we appreciate the help. Wrestlers who donate $500, $1,000 or more, will be recognized during our event.

Come hear us roast Coach Bukky! We'll share funny stories, great memories, and tribute speeches for Coach Paul Bukky.

Join us as we celebrate the 80th birthday of Paul Bukky, a coach, mentor, and friend whose impact on the wrestling community has shaped generations. Over decades of dedication to the sport, Paul has inspired wrestlers to prepare well, compete hard, and to continually improve.

This evening is an opportunity for former wrestlers, coaches, friends, and family to come together, share stories, and recognize the lasting influence Paul has had on so many of us. From the wrestling room to lifelong friendships built through the sport, Paul's legacy continues to live through the countless individuals he has mentored, both on and off the mat.

We hope you will join us for a memorable evening honoring a man who has given so much to the wrestling community and to all of us fortunate enough to have learned from him.
