2026 SJB CARNIVAL 60th ANNIVERSARY



 

The 60th Annual Parish Carnival is almost here just 2½ weeks away and we need volunteers like Pizza Fritta needs powdered sugar. As of this morning, over 80% of our volunteer spots are still empty, and even the fried Oreos are starting to look worried.

This beloved tradition has been part of our parish family for six decades, and it can only continue if our community rallies behind it—not just by attending and sponsoring, but by volunteering.

Please sign up today: 2026 Carnival Volunteer Signups

Why does it matter? Because this one event is the major fundraiser that fuels the entire Athletic Association: 70+ teams, 11 sports, 900+ athletes, and even more opportunities coming next year (Field Hockey, Wrestling, Girls Soccer). Your time, talent, and treasures directly support the youngest members of our parish.
