More Than 2 Dozen Baskets To Be Raffled at McCarthy Pumpkin Fair

McCarthy Elementary School PTO will be host its annual Pumpkin Fair  tomorrow, Oct. 20 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The money raised supports school programs and events, including field trips, library books, playground maintenance and classroom materials.

The fun family and community event has games, food and prizes.

Children will love the pumpkin and cookie decorating stations. Games and stations are by ticket. Tickets can be purchased at the entrance to the elementary school.

A food café and a bake sale will be available, so spend the entire afternoon.

One of the highlights of the fair is the fabulous basket raffle area. More than two dozen themed baskets are bursting with generous donations from local merchants, national businesses, staff, parents and the community.

Tickets for the raffle baskets will be sold on the day of the Pumpkin Fair. Tickets are $1 each, 6 for $5, 12 for $10, 25 for $20 and 75 for $50. You don't need to be present to win.

Families are invited to attend and the public is invited to participate in the basket raffle.
