Hoagies (salami, ham, provolone cheese, “special onions,” and olive oil on a fresh hoagie bun) are the 2nd largest Lexington Catholic High School FUNdraiser that the whole school community participates in. It is a wonderful way to meet other parents, it is unique to LCHS, and you will have more fun than you ever thought possible at 5:30AM on a Saturday morning!

History note:  The first Hoagie Sales were launched in September 1977. Inspired by the promise of a hoagie holiday (half day off from school before Thanksgiving), the student body sold over 9000 hoagies in their first year. The first hoagie fundraiser netted $5,300. In 2023, we raised almost $60,000 for tuition assistance!  And….we donated over 4000 hoagies to the Catholic Action Center!  What a unique, community building, wonderful, much needed LCHS tradition!
