Carver Elementary, one of four CATCH (Coordinated Approach To Child Health) schools in Goose Creek CISD, hosted an eight-week YMCA Walking Group led Priscila D. Garza, healthy community school coordinator.

The group celebrated its accomplishment of walking a marathon in eight weeks. Pictured are (front, from left) Mia Huerta, Josi Strawbridge, Amada Huerta, (second row, from left) Mason Davis, Giselle Santos, Mollie Wolfford, Alexia Santos, Maria Chavez, Alejandra Careaga, (third row, from left) Tracy Brown, Courtney Morris, Alondra Mendoza, Sandra Santos, Ashley Andrews, Ashley Robertson, (fourth row from left) Priscila Garza, Elma Villanueva, Rhonda Jordan, Wanetta Steed, Cindy Bigham, Wendy Madrid, Bart Cobb and Robert Andrews.
