During pre-game at the St. Joseph Varsity football game Friday, we have several very special events planned and one of them is a "Survivor Walk".  A group of survivors will walk half way around the track escorted by our fall sports athletes to midfield where there will be a short ceremony.  Please meet at the NE corner of the track around 6:30 Friday evening to get information and be a part of this symbolic walk.
