IN-PERSON: Kehilla Purim Carnival
in Kehilla Courtyard

We are planning for another in person, outdoor Purim Carnival this year! The Purim Carnival is a wild and wonderful time with games and activities for young people, and relies heavily on volunteer support. Please consider supporting the carnival in one of these three ways:

1. Volunteer during the carnival (sign up here)- we’ve got to set up and clean up! We’ve got bounce house to supervise, bean bag toss, BINGO and freeze dance to run, snacks to distribute, and so much more fun to provide! Feel free to sign up for one shift or multiple, depending on your availability.

2. Donate baked goods for the carnival (sign up here)– Baked goods will need to be dropped off at Kehilla between 1-2pm on Sunday 3/5. Each dozen donated will count as an hour of avodah (volunteer service).

3.  Prize Drive: We need prizes for the Purim carnival! Do you have gently used toys that your family is ready to pass on? Let your old toys become new treasures! Keep in mind that Kehilla School has a no (toy) weapons policy.

Bring your donations to Kehilla School, we will have a box out! We are particularly looking for:

• small stuffies
• bouncy balls
• dress up accessories (i.e. toy jewelry, wands, crowns)
• toy cars or action figures (no soldiers or police please)
• rubix cubes or other small puzzles
• fidget toys
• stickers
• slap bracelets

Cost

• $15-45 for self-identified families / pay-what-you-can / Cash Only
• No one turned away for lack of funds
• Non-Kehilla friends and family welcome

For in-person attendance, please adhere to the COVID Public Health Protocols.
