 The Class of 2011 traveled to Washington, D.C. April 16 - 18 as part of a special pilgrimage.
"Pilgrimage was so much fun,” said junior Amy Paluf. I was happy that we got to have this experience that normally is a senior tradition. It was a bittersweet experience since it was probably the last time our class will be able to be all together."
En route, the pilgrimage stopped at Shanksville, PA, site of the Flight 93 memorial.
Seniors visited the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception and have planned a prayer service at Our Lady of Lourdes Grotto. A special Mass for students and was held at the Arlington Cemetery amphitheater. Following Mass and a visit to the Kennedy grave sites, seniors attended a special brunch at the Ft. Myers Officers’ Club.
Tours of the White House, Smithsonian and other area monuments and museums round out the trip.
This marked the 40th pilgrimage to Washington by Regina High students.
