This event is open to the public.  Tickets are $35 per guest or $250 per table of eight, which includes dinner ($40 per guest at the door).  Cocktails will be served at 6 pm (cash bar) followed by dinner at 7 pm.  After dinner, there will be special presentations honoring the inductees. 

To RSVP or for more information about the Hall of Fame dinner, please email Rachel Ellingson or call (815) 717-3160.

The Green & White Hall of Fame was created in 2005 to recognize outstanding athletes, teams, coaches and benefactors who have participated in and contributed to the rich athletic history of Providence Catholic High School, which currently includes 25 state championship titles.  The inaugural inductees were Matt Senffner and Nan Airola, two highly respected and dearly loved members of the Providence Catholic family.
