College Knights Encouraged to March with Supreme Council Delegation

College Knights are encouraged to march together with the Supreme Council delegation. College Knights will gather in front of the Smithsonian National Museum of American History (Madison Drive entrance) beginning at 11:30 a.m. and then join the Supreme Council delegation at the rally. Following the March for Life, those who march with the Supreme Council will be invited to a luncheon at Union Station. For those planning to join us for the march and/or luncheon, please RSVP here.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I attend?
College Knights wishing to attend the March for Life will need to arrange their own transportation to and from Washington, D.C. If your school has a Right-to-Life group or Pro-Life club, we encourage you to work with them to coordinate a trip for students. Alternatively, you may be able to attend the March for Life as part of a trip with your diocese. Finally, if you cannot find another group to coordinate a trip with, the council could organize its own trip and invite other Pro-Life students to join.

How do I march with other college Knights and the Supreme Council delegation?
The Supreme Council delegation will meet college Knights behind the stage at the Rally for Life near 15th and Constitution Avenues. This location is closest to the Smithsonian Metro (Orange/Blue Lines).

I plan to march with my school. Is that okay?
Each year, a number of college Knights attend the March for Life with other students from their school. While some Knights march with the college Knights delegation, others prefer to march with their school. Whatever you prefer to do, we ask that you let us know to ensure that marchers who are unable to join the Supreme Council delegation are included in our count for an accurate number of college Knights who participated in the March for Life.
