This is a low-cost family fun event that takes place in school. Teachers, parents and student volunteers run the games and stations. Families can come to epeience a carnival-like experience at a low cost. We have prizes at each station/game such as dunk a teacher, plinko, bowling, basketball toss, bean bag toss, duck pond, face painting and so much more as well as raffle baskets. We are always looking for businesses to donate product or gift cards to our school so that they basket raffle can bring in 100% profit. We could use mini candy as prizes and lollipops for the lollipop tree. Some prizes that could be donated for game prizes might include fidget spinners, snap bracelets, bouncy balls, stickers, pencils, sunglasses, blow up balls, necklaces/bracelets, lanyards, refillable water bottles, slinkies, lip balm, etc.

A local business helps by donating hot dogs that we can serve at low cost for families and donation of tickets to the local speedway races. We announce the business sponsors on our flyer (wchih can be adjusted as sponsors contribute) as well as on our Facebook parent group, Facebook Home & School Page as well as through communications to parents/families of the students.
