Gala Invitation | Registration
Bellevue University will host the 4th annual Men's Basketball Gala on Friday, Sept. 19. The Gala, which begins at 6:00 p.m. in BU's John B. Muller Administrative Services Building, will feature keynote speaker Doug Woodard, the long-time head coach of the boy's basketball team at Bellevue West High School.
Join us for cocktails and a silent auction at 6:00 p.m. and dinner at 7:00 p.m.
We invite you to hear Doug Woodard share the lessons he has learned from basketball and how those lessons translate off-the-court.
The money raised from the event will be used to cover Bruin Basketball travel and equipment costs as well as academic support such as tutors, books, fees and more.
