Please join us for the 24^th Annual Blue & Gold Gala at the beautiful Hershey Lodge. This is a wonderful opportunity to support Bishop McDevitt, whose students encompass diverse intellectual, socio-economic and religious backgrounds. The gala supports the general fund of the school which allows us to offer an affordable quality education rooted in Gospel values while creating a challenging academic environment. It is through events such as this, with the support of many individuals like you, that we have been able to offer this education to our families for more than ninety-two years.

This year you will be transported to the “Infield” at Churchill Downs for the 138^th running of the Kentucky Derby.  Live coverage of the race, a silent auction, hors d'oeuvres and cocktails with collectible glasses, a Derby Hat contest, southern cuisine and a live auction are some of the evening’s highlights.  Dress for the evening is “Derby Dress”.
