32nd Annual Pat Bixby Memorial Walkathon

Walk-A-Thon is the only Christopher Columbus High School fundraiser that involves our entire student body and faculty. Funds raised through this student-led event will go toward campus beautification and supporting the Marist service mission!

Mark your calendars: The Walk-A-Thon kicks off on Monday, September 16, and the big walk will be held on Friday, October 11th! To participate in the walk, a minimum of $90 must be raised by each student.

Let’s come together to make a difference!

As a Catholic school, Christopher Columbus High School takes our call to be mindful of those less fortunate very seriously.  In light of this, as well as our own Christian understanding of 'sharing,' a portion of the Walk-A-Thon funds will be distributed to the Marist Mission.
