Carnival IS THIS FRIDAY!
Dear Appleton Community,
Bring a Baked Item -Carnival Cake Walk Donations Needed
One of the most fun events at the Appleton Carnival is the CakeWalk. We need your donations to make that event happen. Please consider bringing a baked good (ex. cakes, pies, cookies, cupcakes, brownies, or breads) for the ever popular CakeWalk on the day of the Carnival or the day before. A plate of 6 cupcakes, a dozen cookies or any store bought pastry are all great ways to support the Cake Walk. Thank You!
Let the Bidding Wars Begin!
If you can support the silent auction it would be greatly appreciated. We are accepting items that you, a business, or organization you are associated with, are willing to donate. Free services, gift cards, and goods are all appreciated. More than 1,000 people will attend the carnival. Donating an item from your business is a great way to advertise. Send in donations or call Corey Hafey 254-6400 for more information.

Parking Auction Item = Fun & Convenience
By popular demand we are once again offering year long parking spots (2 will be offered) as fun silent auction items this year. How would you like to have your own parking space near the parent pick-up area reserved for you all year? Well, we are putting that package together for the silent auction. Just think, never having to guess if there is a parking spot available. Sounds like paradise doesn’t it?
This and many more fun silent auction items will be available at the famous Appleton Carnival on September 8.
Helping the night of the Carnival
It takes 200+ volunteers to pull off the Appleton Carnival, so that means we need you! Even if you can only help for 15 minutes, we’d really appreciate it! All jobs are very simple (serving food, helping with games, setting up tables and chairs, stuffing envelopes, etc) For more info and to sign up to help, visit the Carnival Volunteer page
