Students Walk to Fundraise for a cure for Cystic Fibrosis!
St. Benedict Catholic Secondary School school raised $3500 during their Cystic Fibrosis Walk this week! The students traded in their pencils for running shoes as they walked their way along the track. In turn, their teachers got a taste of something sweet when their students shave their beards and completed a pie throw with all proceeds going toward CF.
Way to go Bears!
