Carnival fun returns to Friday Harbor on Saturday, November 16 from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Fairgrounds.

The annual FUNdraiser for Island Rec’s support group, FANS: (Families and Neighbors Support Island Rec), features some 20 games booths, including Bursting Balloon Darts, Take a Cake Cakewalk, Digging for Diamonds and Penguin Fish Fling. Three inflatable “bouncy” houses will also be on hand as well as an amazing Rube Goldberg-type creation concocted by island architect David Waldron. Carnival favorites like cotton candy and sno-cones will be available and chef Tommy Pieples’ Fan Café will have plenty of hamburger, hot dogs and other festive fare.

Admission is free; proceeds from the games and food—$1 tickets will be sold, with items ranging from $1 to $4 each—will help FANS in its nonprofit mission to create new opportunities for Island Rec to expand its parks, programs and services. Most recently, FANS funds help create and support Island Rec’s new Movies in the Park program.

For more information or to volunteer at the carnival, contact Cathy Kromer at 370-5315.
