The Trojan Walk was created as an event to honor and support our 1,500+ special education students within the Chambersburg School District. Our goal within CASD is to provide a welcoming, supportive, caring, and inclusive environment for all students. We believe that all students have an individual ability to learn, grow, and thrive together.

The money raised through this event will directly benefit the special education students across the district K-12 within all of our special education programs. Donations may be used, but not limited to supporting sensory modulation areas and tools, community outreach and experiences, and career and transition exploration. Please note, donations will not be used to supplant district purchases.

This year we have a number CASD employees and board members participating in a fundraising challenge. This year the 2026 Trojan Walk will be sponsoring a “Tundra Tank Challenge”.
Participants on the “Ice Block” Will be paired with an “Ice Cube Side Kick” Donations made to either team member will count towards both team Members.

When an Ice Pair Has $500 donated in either team members name, The “Ice Cube Side Kick” Participant will have to take a plunge into the icy waters of the Tundra Tank.

When an Ice Pair Has $1,000 donated in either team members name, The “Ice Block” Participant will have to take a plunge into the icy waters of the Tundra Tank.
