CHILDREN'S CARNIVAL SEPTEMBER 9, 2006

The children's carnival was great fun for everyone, and included such amusements as a moonbounce, assorted carnival games, (especially the very popular "Pig Race Game"), delicious food, face painting, a balloon-carrying clown, a bake sale and a white elephant table. We also had representatives from the Anne Arundel County Fire, Police Bike Patrol, and Animal Control Departments, and the Civil Air Patrol. Entertaining and upbeat music set the tone thanks to our DJ, Erick Mitchell. See some of the fun below:
