Walk-a-Thon

What to Expect

This year our Marching to Mardi Gras will take place on Friday, October 13th. Information about sponsorship, volunteer opportunities, pledges, participation, t-shirts and more will be communicated accordingly.

Every year a group of wonderful volunteers work together on every aspect of this event. On Kick-Off Day (Wednesday, October 4th) each family receives a packet with instructions on how to go about collecting donations. We accept donations online through our partner company, Boosterthon. Families will also be able to email and create social media posts specific to their student. There are many incentives and prizes associated with full participation when reaching their goal by the due dates.

Walk-a-Thon

We will be having a virtual version of our Annual Walk-a-thon, ​hosted by the SGS Development Office​, which enables students to acquire pledges as they exercise their way to raise money for their school. Family & Community Sponsorships are now available by either placing an ad or wording on our unique T-Shirt or direct monetary donations. These sponsorships are the only means of underwriting expenses to maximize profit. It is never too late to donate in support of underwriting costs for this event.

History

St. Gregory the Great Walk-a-Thon has been a school tradition since 1992 .This fundraising event allows the children to make a visible contribution to their school while having fun. The Walk-a-Thon encourages all families to be part of our wonderful community while raising funds to improve their school. These funds were used for different projects around the school.

Enhancements include: state of the art computer equipment, library renovation, security system, STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math ) lab upgrades, and playground renovations including artificial turf, mulch, borders, and enhancing the sand volleyball courts.
