The Good Shepherd Parents' Organization is suiting up for our first-ever fall auction, Friday Night Lights - a laid-back, tailgate-inspired evening where every guest is part of the home team. We’re talking fabulous auction items, signature cocktails, a winning dinner line-up, fun, games, and a pregame concert from the incredible Diamond West Band.
Every play we make that night supports the Fit For Our Future comprehensive campaign, helping us outfit our brand-new gym so Cougars can keep scoring big for years to come.
- 7 p.m. - Doors, Food, Band & Games Open
- 9 p.m. - Auction Begins
- 11 p.m. - Evening Concludes
We’re taking the game to Armstrong Fieldhouse, the crown jewel of SMU Athletics on Bishop Boulevard. Home to an indoor turf football practice field, top-tier training facilities, and MustangVision Studios, this venue sets the stage for an unforgettable night under the lights.
