Fall Fair & Homecoming

Are you excited about Fall Fair?

We are!

There are still opportunities to volunteer at one of our activity or food booths. Sign up for a 2-hour shift today!

Each year, Fall Fair, one of the year's largest events, brings together faculty and families from all over the school for a day of fun, food, games and sports.

To make it all happen, we need you!

Please consider donating a small or large chunk of your time; everyone is welcome and it's a wonderful place to get to know new parents and connect with old friends.

Sign up here!

Thanks to our Friends Academy families who will be hosting Carnival Games, Arts and Crafts, and other fun activities for children of all ages.

RIDES – Preorder tickets here!

Newton is back and we will have all of our favorite rides including all of our favorite rides for all ages including the Pharaoh's Fury, Super Slide, Cliff-hanger, Tornado, Happy Swing, Dizzy Dragon, and the Sizzler, to mention a few.

When you arrive on Saturday, stop by the Ticket Booth located near the rides to pick up your bracelets.
