The event is in honor of Katie Welling, who graduated from Bronxville High School in 2002 and died in 2005 in an off-campus fire at Miami of Ohio University at the age of 21.

The event is something a lot of Bronxville residents look forward to participating in, said Peggy Williams, executive director of The Bronxville School Foundation.
