Mini Carnival

On Tuesday at 8:30 A.M. the neighbors and I headed outside and to one of the neighbor's yards to set up for a miniature carnival we were having. We would have tons of games and things to do, and of course, prizes. The carnival included:

Petting Zoo (Guinea Pigs, Chip and Bingo)

Look for a Smile (You pick up a rock out of the baby pool, and if it has a smiley on the bottom, you win a prize.)

Ball to the Bucket (Throw a ball to any of the 3 buckets)

Scavenger Hunt

Bounce Around (An inflatable castle)

Refreshments

Fuze Ball

Face Painting

Tattoos

All the money we raised, we are going to donate to T.A.P.S, a no-kill animal shelter. We finally opened everything up at around 11:00 A.M., and had a ton of people come. We put up signs around the neighborhood about the carnival, and also gave out to flyers to people who had kids. In the end, at around 1:30 P.M., we had over 60 dollars to give to T.A.P.S! It was amazing. It cost 50 cents to get in, and 25 cents for another 10 tickets. We are going to have another carnival again one more time before summer ends, and instead of calling it "Charity Fun Fair" we are going to call it "Round Up the Summer Carnival". I can't wait! Try doing it sometime, it's a blast, and you feel really good about yourself if you donate to a special cause. Thanks for reading!
