August Update

It was carnival time at New Life!  Thanks to our leader Katy Barger for organizing this outstanding event.  The New Life girls and the volunteers had a fabulous experience enjoying all the fun the carnival had to offer.

Especially popular was the “dunking booth”.  Hit the target and your victim is sprayed with a shower of water.  Great fun on a hot day!  The snacks were also a big success. Thanks to all the volunteers for making popcorn, snow cones, cotton candy and distributing pickles.  And, who doesn’t love to try their skills with great carnival games.  Plinko was a crowd favorite with ring-a-bottle coming up a close second.  A special shout out to Marilee and Karalee for putting together some outstanding relay races.  We had balancing golf balls on a plate relay, carry the tomb relay, balance a ball on a plunger relay, and more.  What creative ideas to get the girls participating in friendly competition.

To top off the carnival, we finished with a chili dog luncheon provided by Rick Barger.  Everyone was so appreciative of the homemade chili, hot dogs and chips.  All in all it was a fun filled event with a lot of positive feedback.
