Boxing Smoker

Raising Funds for Future Cadets at Benedictine's Boxing Smoker

We are excited to host our 15th Annual Boxing Smoker fundraiser presented by Geoff McDonald & Associates, P.C.
 
Saturday, March 8, 2025
6:30 PM - 11:00 PM
McMurtrie-Reynolds Pavilion
12829 River Road, Richmond
Attire: Business Casual
Must be 21+ to attend
 
Get ready for a knockout evening featuring professional boxing, cigars, an open bar, hors d'oeuvres, and a full dinner! This exciting event brings together alumni, parents, and friends for a night of camaraderie and entertainment.
 
But that’s just the beginning! Every ticket, sponsorship, and donation will fuel the newly established Coach Joe Arnold Scholarship, honoring the incredible legacy of a true Benedictine champion. For 43 years, Coach Arnold inspired over 4,000 Cadets, leaving an unforgettable mark from the gridiron to the classroom. Now at 70 and retired, his contributions are deeply missed but will never fade.

Join us in celebrating Coach Arnold’s remarkable career and ensuring his legacy continues to impact future generations of Cadets. Together, we can make this a championship-level tribute to an extraordinary teacher, coach, mentor, and friend.
