St. Bernard Elementary School students held their annual walkathon Wednesday morning, September 25. Kids jumped into the day with both feet as they proceeded through a number of obstacle courses, games and other activities along Main Street. Rockport Police Department’s Safety Pup even joined the fun, offering hugs and even getting in on some dancing. The walkathon is an annual fundraiser for the St. Bernard Parent Teacher Association.
