Want to be a part of the Owl Walk? 

The Owl Walk committee is proud to partner with the Bensalem Alumni Association to create the Owl Walk, a commemorative brick walkway that was installed near the north entrance of the high school. Funds raised by this project will be used to support needs in the nine libraries in the district.
 
Bricks can be purchased in 4"x 8" or 8"x 8" sizes:
  • 4" x 8" bricks cost $100 each  and can be inscribed with up to 3 lines of 18 characters* each.
  • 8" x 8" bricks cost $200 each and can be inscribed with up to 6 lines of 18 characters* each.
*Spaces and symbols also count as characters.
 
Donor certificates and commemorative bricks can be ordered for an additional fee when placing online orders.
 
Bricks can be ordered in the following ways: 
  • Order online at www.bricksrus.com/order/BHS
  • Complete this form and submit payment with check payable to "Bensalem Education Foundation." Orders can be mailed to Bensalem Education Foundation, Attn: Owl Walk, 3000 Donallen Dr, Bensalem, PA 19020
Bensalem Township School District, Bensalem Alumni Association and Bensalem Education Foundation have the right to review text for appropriateness and to decline those that do not reflect the spirit of the project.
 
 
Frequently Asked Questions
 
When will the walk be installed?
Brick sales are on-going, so order today!
 
Where will the walk be located?
The walk is located to the left of the North entrance of the high school.
 
Can I use a logo on the brick?
Yes, logos can be placed on bricks for a set-up fee of $50 plus $5 engraving fee per brick ordered with the logo.
  • For example, if you want an 8" x 8" brick with a logo, it will cost $255 ($200 brick cost + $50 logo set-up fee + $5 engraving fee). 
  • If you want two 8" x 8" bricks with the same logo on them the first one would cost $255, but the second one would only cost $205.
 
Because of variation in the size of logos, the amount of space that remains for lettering will vary on a case by case basis. Therefore, the logo would need to be submitted in advance of any text requests. so that the company can evaluate the spacing and determine the remaining number of characters.
