Street Sign Unveiling for Shawn Donigan on April 18

Join us on Saturday, April 18, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. for a special ceremony honoring Shawn Donigan, a dedicated coach and mentor who has served Louisville's youth for more than 36 years through the West End Yellow Jackets football programs.

In recognition of his lasting impact and his commitment to community service, the corner of South 34th Street and West Magnolia Street will be officially named “Shawn Donigan Way.”
