Soup will be for sale by the quart (?) or gallon (?). NEW this year we will offer a "Soup Loop" for Carry Out Soup. The Soup Loop will run 1 pm to 4 pm Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. The soup will be pre-packaged in different sizes and ready to go. Just follow the line, pay for your soup, take it, and go. It's that easy! We are no longer able to sell soup in containers brought to our event (sanitary restrictions). Thank you for your patience and understanding as we implement this change.
We can take credit cards for food purchases and ride tickets.
We will be having a craft fair. We are currently looking for vendors.
We are once again asking for glassware donations for the dime pitch.
We are always recruiting volunteers for our annual carnival. We have many opportunities available. You can come in the weeks before to help set up, food preparation (cooking and cutting meat, etc.) and other kitchen work, general cleanup. During the carnival you can help in the kitchen with food preparation, washing dishes, transporting the finished product, packing, serving, order taking, and much, much, more. You can help for one hour or the entire duration of the event. If any of the above sounds like something you would be interested in, please contact the fire house and leave a message in the events mailbox. Just a quick reminder, this is a great opportunity to earn community service hours for school and scouts requirements.
