On Wednesday, June 19, a group of students broke ground for the St. Marcellin Champagnat Peace Gardens in front of the Hampshire Street Entrance.

The Peace Garden is one of four exciting projects happening on campus this summer.

• The Baroni Hall Refresh
• The Al Peterson '50 Student Life Center

The Baroni Hall Refresh

Baroni Hall is being refreshed to create a new and vibrant feel for the 2024-2025 Academic Year!

Named for generous and dedicated alumnus Gino Baroni '74, Baroni Hall was built as part of the South Wing construction project in 2004 and has served as Central Catholic’s dining hall for 20 years! Baroni Hall also hosts Visions Coffeehouses, alumni events and reunions, faculty events, athletic practices, student activities, and more.

This project is made possible by the generous support of Gino Baroni '74.

The Al Peterson '50 Student Life Center

Space on the ground floor of the South Wing of campus is being transformed into the Peterson Student Life Center.

This new space will house our Athletics and Activities Offices and will serve as a hub of student life on campus.

With 30 varsity sports programs and more than 50 different clubs and activities, the Student Life Center will certainly be a busy place.

In order to accommodate the Student Life Center, the Raider Campus Store is moving to a new space adjacent to the Student Life Center.

This project is being made possible by the generous support of Al Peterson '50.

The Raider Campus Store Relocation & Redesign

The Raider Campus Store is being relocated next to the Peterson Student Life Center.

This newly created space is being designed to best highlight the wide range of Raider apparel, novelties, and school supplies offered daily to students, parents, and alumni.

The St. Marcellin Champagnat Peace Gardens

The staircases, walkways, and greenspace in front of the Hampshire Street Entrance will be transformed over the summer into a reflective sanctuary on campus that will include three elements.

The Imprescia & Burger Family Prayer & Meditation Labyrinth

Made possible by Olivia (Imprescia '14) Burger

The Madeline (Howshan) Rossi Stations of the Cross

Made possible by Laurence J. ('64) and Patricia C. Rossi in honor of Larry's mother.

The Richard ('61) & Marilyn Santagati Amphitheater

Made possible by Richard J. ('61) & Marilyn Santagati.

The Statue of Our Lady, which has stood watch over our students and faculty in front of the original school building on Auburn Street and at various other places on campus throughout our history, will become a part of the Peace Gardens.

This project is made possible by donations from generous supporters combined with funds raised by students through the 2023 Walkathon.

Thank you to all those who are making these upgrades and improvements possible!

Stay tuned for updates and details on the changes happening on campus over the summer!
