Under the Big Top—Festival 2017
Come one, come all on Sunday, April 23rd!

Dear Families of St. Francis:

Every spring for the past 47 years, our church families and school community have come together for the St. Francis Festival—a spirited afternoon of fun, food, and fellowship. Come one, come all on Sunday, April 23, from noon until 4:00 p.m. to St. Francis Episcopal School and Church (Main Campus | 335 Piney Point Road, 77024). We are going to transform the grounds of St. Francis into a big-top celebration with something for everyone—from the young to the young at heart! Mark your calendars for this time-honored St. Francis tradition, and get ready for the Greatest Festival on Earth! We plan to wow our audience with several new and returning attractions, including:

• Mechanical Bull—Enjoy eight seconds of high-flying fun!
• Bouncers—Clown around in inflatable bounce houses!
• Pick-a-Chop—Earn top prizes…under the big top!
• Dunk Tank—Get soaked by your friends!• Pony Rides—Be hot to trot!
• Hot Dogs, Popcorn, & More—Sample yummy carnival snacks!
• High Striker—Show off your strength!
• Pig Races—Oink! Oink!
