Description

For over 50 years, Celebrity Sports Night has raised critical funding for The Viscardi Center’s programs and services that educate, employ and empower children and adults with disabilities. The night kicks off with a cocktail reception, during which guests can snap selfies and receive autographs from athletes – past and present – and celebrities. The evening includes a multi-course, sit-down dinner, silent auction and a live auction featuring an exclusive selection of experiences and packages.

Special guests have included John McEnroe, Joe Namath, Eli Manning, Bryant Gumbel, players from such teams as the New York Islanders, Mets, Giants, and Jets, as well as actor Kevin James and Paralympic medalists.
