Barnard Carnival 2009: It's A Reality

 

Come out and visit! June 24th - June 27th

05.10.09

 

Barnard Carnival 2009The Barnard Fire Department has been at a turning point in our history with talks of cancelling the Carnival due to low community turnout, and the high expense cost and low return on our investment. After careful consideration, listening to our residents and faithful customers it has been decided that the Barnard Carnival will be a reality for 2009. (June 24, 25, 26 and 27 – Parade on Thursday June 25th).

The Carnival will have a new look in 2009 with a new ride vendor, Playland Amusements. Owners Joe and Roberta Sofo are upstate New York residents from the Auburn area. They bring over 40 years of experience and fun to events in upstate and central New York communities. Their values run deep and coincide with our core values of family, community commitment and loyalty.

Tradition is part of the Barnard heritage and it played as one of our key reasons for making the decision of continuing with the Carnival. The other is giving back to the community that has supported us so well for over 80 years. We want to thank everyone that enjoys the Barnard Carnival year in and out. To the volunteers that come each year to cook hot dogs or serve beer, thank you! Without the community commitment, the volunteer firefighters, their families and their friends, we could not continue with this fine tradition.

The Barnard Fire Department, Carnival Committee, Parade Committee and its membership wants to thank you for your patronage and loyal support. Put it on your calendar, it is official, June 24, 25, 26 and 27 are the dates. The Parade will be on Thursday June 25th at 7pm running down Dewey Avenue to Pomona Drive into the Carnival grounds.

We look forward to seeing all our friends in June!
