Dear Friends,

Welcome to Lasallian 2025: Gameday! Tonight, we come together to celebrate the relentless pursuit of excellence that defines St. Joseph’s Collegiate Institute. From the field and the court to the classroom, the stage, the laboratory, and our service initiatives, the competitive spirit of St. Joe’s drives our students to be the best versions of themselves in everything they do.

For generations, the Marauder has been synonymous with determination, teamwork and achievement. Our athletes have brought home championships and built a legacy of success, but our commitment to excellence extends far beyond sports. Our student musicians perform at the highest levels, our actors bring powerful stories to life and our Science Olympiad and Robotics teams push the boundaries of innovation. In Campus Ministry and through our service programs, our young men dedicate themselves to helping those in need, living out our Lasallian mission in meaningful ways.

Tonight, we honor the generations of Marauders who have contributed to our school’s 164 years of success. We celebrate the Christian Brothers, coaches, teachers, mentors and supporters who have inspired greatness in every facet of our school community. Most importantly, we look forward to the future, ensuring that the young men of tomorrow have the same opportunities to experience the St. Joe’s experience and join our unique and inspiring Brotherhood.

Your presence here tonight and your generous support help make that future possible. I sincerely thank all who have worked to organize this event, our incredible supporters and donors, our chair couple, Carlton Jr. and Shonda Brock and every member of the St. Joe’s family who carries forward our mission. Together, we are building a legacy that will inspire generations to come.

Enjoy this special evening, and let’s celebrate the enduring Marauder spirit!

Live Jesus in our hearts...Forever!

Christopher M. Fulco, Ed.D. President

A MESSAGE FROM THE LASALLIAN CHAIR FAMILY

On behalf of our family and the entire St. Joe’s community, we sincerely thank you for making Lasallian 2025: Gameday a tremendous success. It has been an honor to serve as this year’s event chairs and to witness firsthand the incredible generosity and spirit that make St. Joe’s such a special place.

Lasallian is more than just a celebration—it’s a game-changing opportunity that empowers students to excel in athletics, the arts, academics, and leadership. With over 80% of young men at St. Joe’s receiving some form of tuition assistance, your support makes a lasting impact, ensuring that every student has the opportunity to grow into a gentleman of integrity.

Just like on gameday, success is built on teamwork, preparation, and a shared commitment to something greater than ourselves. Thank you for being part of this winning tradition—Go, Marauders!

With Gratitude, Carlton Jr. & Shonda Brock P’25
