Zion's Weekly News

Hello, Zion Families!

The Fall Carnival is here! Fall Carnival is an annual event hosted by PTL, and it's fun for the whole family! Join us this Sunday, October 27 from 3:00-5:00 PM. The weather looks great! Kiddos are welcome to wear their Halloween costumes, as long as they don't get too warm in them. (Reminder: please leave the scary costumes at home.)

Inflatables, lawn games, and hayrides are all part of the day's events. Everything is free EXCEPT for the concession stand and face painting, both of which benefit the 8th grade class trip to Washington, D.C. A kettle corn truck will also be on-site with yummy snacks for purchase. Pumpkin painting will be available thanks to Zion's Children's Ministry. Upon arrival, please park in the south parking lot and walk up the hill behind the school to find the fun!

Parents, we need your help! We have ordered a new inflatable this year that will be a hit with the students, but we want to make sure it's safe. Please sign up for a 30-minute shift of supervising the giant pumpkin. All you have to do is help with crowd control. We will reserve one section for our younger friends.

Thank you and see you this Sunday!
