The Second Annual HSF Family Fun Day is a great way to participate and celebrate the end of a successful school year, and kick off the summer! After last year we received much useful feedback on what you would like to see at this year’s Carnival.  We welcomed your feedback and have made several additions and adjustments to this year’s format: Extended hours, expanded entertainment/attractions, field games and the ability to lessen the cost for you by volunteering.  We look forward to seeing you at this fun and exciting event. Sign-up to attend and volunteer at  the Carnival!
