East Village Walkathon



About 400 teachers, students and their families gathered on Sunday, Oct. 17 for the First Annual Walkathon event, hosted by the Epiphany School Foundation.

Walkers began at 9:30 a.m. at the Epiphany School and marched alongside the East River, down to the Williamsburg Bridge and back.

The walkathon was created to celebrate 122 years of Catholic education as well as raise money for the school and renovation for its playground. The event raised over $36,000, which greatly surpassed their $25,000 goal.

Sidenote: Above are two pictures of the kids walking along the East River. One could be a great photo to represent the event, the other is just adorable.
