Carnival

An Annual Event for All Ages

The 2019 St Jude Catholic Church Carnival returns on Thursday, September 26, and runs through Sunday, September 29. This annual event has become a North Texas tradition, as people of all ages come from miles around to enjoy the food, games and rides. The St. Jude Carnival Committee began preparation in February, and has put together an event designed for the enjoyment of people, young and old.  The committee’s ultimate goal is to make this year’s carnival the best one yet! 

Carnival rides and food will be a major draw, as Talley Amusements, Inc. returns with their legendary Ferris wheel, spin rides, turkey legs and funnel cakes in an idyllic carnival setting.  On Saturday, in addition to Talley’s midway rides, St. Jude activities will include children’s games, Jumper Bee Entertainment inflatables, delicious food prepared by our very own Knights of Columbus, and the St. Jude Raffle and Silent Auction.  Raffle tickets will be available after Masses and in the Parish Office for opportunities to win outstanding prizes such as gift cards, dinner at Rick’s Chop House, movie passes and much more! Bidding on our many awesome Silent Auction items will take place online and in the Parish Hall on Saturday. 

As in previous years, our carnival sponsors, the Allen Police Department Command Center and Allen Fire Department will also be a part of the fun!

Proceeds from the carnival will go toward updating the St. Jude Youth Room and other St. Jude projects.  In addition, the proceeds from raffle ticket sales and silent auction benefit educational outreach projects in our local community and throughout the Diocese of Dallas.
