Family Fun Day Brings Joy, Laughter, and Lasting Impact

What better way to welcome the season than with Family Fun Day! On Saturday, September 27, our campus was filled with energy, laughter, and the unmistakable joy of community as families came together for one of St. Patrick’s most treasured fall traditions. We were especially excited to welcome several alumni back to campus as well, as pictured below! 

Although rain was in the forecast, it did nothing to dampen spirits. Students darted between the moon bounce in the Nave and inflatables in the Gymnasium and Performing Arts Center, while parents and friends browsed vendors and enjoyed delicious food from Surfside, Fly Pizza Truck, Roaming Rooster, and the Good Humor truck. The Tennis Can Game drew a steady stream of hopefuls, each determined to win one of the incredible prizes on display. The cheers, laughter, and friendly competition made the atmosphere festive from start to finish.

This much-loved event simply wouldn’t be possible without the dedication of Co-Chairs Adrienne Reich O’Brien and Katie Oppenheim and the more than 50 volunteers who worked behind the scenes, from set-up to game stations and clean-up. Their efforts ensured a seamless day of fun, connection, and celebration for our community.

Beyond the joy of the day, Family Fun Day makes a lasting impact. Funds raised support events like Family Bingo Night and Faculty and Staff Appreciation, as well as initiatives such as our Sustainability Program and enhancements to the student experience.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, volunteered, and supported this year’s Family Fun Day. Together, we created memories that will endure long after the final prize was claimed!
