Tailgate Gold Out Game
September 19, 2025
SHS Paul Langford Stadium
Join us for a pre-game tailgate to learn more about the foundation, wear gold, and stand united with the community. Hamburgers and drinks will be available at the Will Carpenter tent.
Each event we host is an opportunity to bring our community together—to raise awareness, fund critical research, and honor the lives forever impacted by Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma. Whether you’re joining us in person or supporting from afar, your involvement helps turn grief into action and hope.
Together, We Can Create Change.
Your donation helps fuel the search for better treatments and lasting cures for Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma. It supports critical research, raises awareness, and gives families facing this rare cancer the support they urgently need. Every dollar brings us one step closer to change.
