Spring Carnival
Our annual spring carnival is coming up on Friday, May 9th from 5:30pm to 7pm. We are in need of volunteers to help run the carnival games, concessions, and prize table. If you know of any community members wanting to volunteer, this volunteer sign up doesn’t require individuals to have a background check on file with the school district, as it is not during school hours. Shifts are 5pm to 6pm and 6pm to 7pm. Help us make this a great event by volunteering!
