This fun-filled day was organized to give back to the community. All donations will be sent to Children’s Hospital to help all children in their care, but namely Hannah Jensen, the daughter of a Casady family and a friend to the Casady Community, and Bennett Hanneman, the son of Lower Division faculty member, Aimee Hanneman.
The Casady Walk-A-thon started at 8:00 a.m with Lower and Middle Division students walking around the lake and stoping at the YAC booth to decorate placemats for the children at Children's Hospitals.
The Upper Division Walk-a-thon started at Chapel with speeches from Stuco's President and Mrs. Jensen. Our prayers are with the Hanneman Family because Bennett had to return to the hospital. Mrs. Hanneman was cheering the walker's first lap.
Lunch was served at the Woolsey house lawn and the festivities and ongoing laps continued.

It doesn't take an expert to know that children are not little adults.
But when a child is sick and needs medical care, it does take special doctors, nurses and staff, who are experts at treating children. It takes special equipment, designed just for children. It takes medication that is suitable for children. It takes treatments and procedures created for the small, growing bodies of children. It takes a hospital just for children.

The Children's Hospital works to provide a child- and family-friendly atmosphere, in every way. Our doctors, nurses and staff are trained in pediatrics, the medical treatment of children, so they can understand and support each child's physical, emotional and social needs, while in the hospital. We use language that children can understand and, when possible, medical play to explain procedures to our young patients. We spend time educating parents and care givers, so they are confident caring for their child after returning home.
When your child is sick or injured, The Children's Hospital can provide the advanced services that perfectly fit the needs of your family.
