Ramble 2025: May God Hold You

Now in its 56th year, Ramble is Loyola Academy's largest fundraising event and has been one of the major contributors to the school's Tuition Assistance Program. Ramble has undergone many transformations over the years, but one thing has remained consistent...the goal of transforming the lives of Ramblers!

Join on on Saturday, March 15, for dinner, silent and live auctions, and music from Internationally Renowned Band Maggie Speaks.

A Jesuit College Prep Experience

We are a diverse and committed community responding to our God-given call to become women and men for others who are religious, intellectual, physically & socially-emotionally fit, loving, open to growth, and committed to doing justice.
