Newsletter 2020-1

Friends and Fans,

Thanks to all you folks that help make UNR Boxing work.

Here is a peek at what we have left in the schedule and season ticket availability for those events.

We will be at the Eldorado on January 31st, 2020 for our annual ‘Super Bowl’ weekend

bouts.  These bouts will start at 7:00 p.m. (doors open at 6:00).

We will be hosting two nights of boxing, the Western Regional Championships, on March 13th and 14th at the Circus Circus.

Season tickets are available for $60 a seat that will include admissions to all three fight nights.

Joyce Garcia has tickets available for the events at this point.  Please contact Joyce, contact info above, for your seats.

Our Foundation mailing address is:

            Jimmy Olivas Athletic Foundation (or JOAF)

            3724 Lakeside dr. suite 100

            Reno, NV. 89509    

            Att/ Joyce

Please send payments/ checks/ donations to this address.  We have purchased a new ring, I’m sure those of you that were at last years Finals saw the oldest of our rings collapse on one side during the event.  We could use a little help with the purchase of the new dance floor.

Again, our sincere thanks.

We are UNR Boxing, and have been since 1928.

In Jimmy’s Corner,

Mike Schellin

Again, a little bit about the new gym. We are now at 633 East 4th street, and we are going full blast getting ready for the 2019-20 campaign.  We had a lot of help getting in there.  The Colgan Family got us off the ground with a donation in the name of UNR Boxer Rowan Colgan (Dr. Colgan’s dad) who fought on the 1931 squad with Jimmy Olivas!  Also, the Lamb Foundation, Capital Glass. Maxwell Mechanical, Operating Engineers Local #3, the Eldorado Hotel Casino, EMR Land, Western Nevada Supply,
Dr. Wm. Trimmer. Tremendous support!
 
Our annual drive for Program Ads is just underway please consider an ad that we display on all our bout sheets. $80 a year for a single space and $130 for a double.  See the website (www.UNRBoxing.com) for details, or contact me at:  mike@unrboxing.com.  Much thanks!
