You Are Invited to the Kickoff Party at the NCAAs
Each year at the NCAAs, Jordan Burroughs and the All We See Is Gold Foundation host the Kickoff Party to celebrate before the action starts. This year they are partnered with U.S. Wrestling Foundation to make it wrestling’s Big Night Out.
There’s an all-star cast in attendance of Olympic, World and NCAA champions, including Jordan Burroughs, Anthony Robles, Bruce Baumgartner, Gene Mills, Mark Schultz and Vito Arujau. Three-time Super Bowl champion Stephen Neal of the New England Patriots will be there, along with Frank Jasper, aka “Shute” from the movie Vision Quest.
This is a great opportunity to meet the stars and friends of wrestling. There is an open bar, buffet and some super cool, unique auction items.
Tickets are available at here.
The silent auction will go live on Saturday and will have items from the stars and people that wrestled, as well as a great array of unique items. There’s a treasure in there for everyone.
Funds from the event will go to help get America wrestling. The All We See is Gold Foundation supports local wrestling clubs to provide mats and uniforms, as well as scholarships for training.
In addition, the U.S. Wrestling Foundation conducts an annual promotion to increase participation in wrestling – see LetsWrestle.com. They send recruiting kits to every high school with a wrestling team in America. The kits include posters of Hollywood celebrities, sports stars and notable people that wrestled. The program has been effective in helping make wrestling the fastest growing boys and girls sport the last two years and in helping to break the all-time participation record while achieving the most boy wrestlers since 1978.
