The PFA will be putting on an old fashioned carnival as a fundraiser to build the track. Tickets will be sold for $ .25 or $2 for 10 tickets. Featured activities include the Bounce House, Obstacle Course, Carnival Swings, Fear Factor, football toss, the Strong Man, train, stilt walkers, face painting, tattoos, lots of game booths, cake walk, cake auction, lots of food, and a live auction! Prizes include two kindle fires, trip to Lagoon, trip to McCall, Stampede Tickets, Steelhead tickets, auto detail package, quilts, prom package, Luke Bryan Package, patio set, and lots more!

Do not miss out on an opportunity to DUNK your favorite teacher, staff member, or administrator during the evening!!! We have two dunk tanks going all evening filled with volunteer staff members! This promises to be a big HIT! J

The middle and high school robotics teams will have their bots on display from 4-6 in the library. You are invited to find out more about robotics and upcoming robotics camps in addition to allowing your child to control a Sumo Bot!

The PFA will be selling a variety of food during the event so come out and have dinner and snacks with your family and friends!

Parents and students will be able to stop in the classrooms to see the science fair projects from 4-6 p.m. and the carnival activities and food will be going from 4-7:30 p.m. continuously. I hope you will all plan on coming to this wonderful whole family evening.
