Heads up Saints!
We are excited to say that our first pep rally will be happening this Wednesday, September 24th from 3pm – 5:30pm on the St. Benedict’s football field!

There will be food trucks, face paint, music, and other fun things to do while supporting and cheering on the St. Benedict’s Senior Football team!
