WHAT is Novemberfest? ~ It is a HUGE carnival that our parish and the school host for the community in November! There are rides, entertainment, terrific food, and MUCH, MUCH MORE!!! It is a lot of work, but even more fun!!

WHEN is Novemberfest? ~ The event will be held from Thursday, November 20th, through Sunday, November 23rd. Thursday and Friday are Noon Dismissal Days for our students, and our NFEST family days begin at Noon – 4:00 p.m. Students will be allowed to wear Novemberfest t-shirts to school on Thursday and Friday to celebrate Novemberfest. Much more information will follow!

WHO is Novemberfest for?  ~ Everyone! All ages enjoy Novemberfest!

WHERE is Novemberfest? ~ The event takes place mainly on the large field on the corner of Bryan Road and HWY 60.

WHY Novemberfest? ~ The event is our school’s largest fundraiser and brings in about 150K of revenue for the school, faith formation, and parish ministries. The largest percentage goes to fund our parish school to offset tuition and other expenses.
 
Each school family, per your enrollment contract, is obligated to work 10 hours. There are TONS of opportunities to get involved in the month ahead, during the event weekend, and after. School families can also volunteer more than 10 hours, and the credit will go towards their General Service Hour requirement.

The Better Impact App is the location to sign up for all Novemberfest service hours. Create your Better Impact account at https://bit.ly/NCSBetterImpact.   Volunteer opportunities will be available and tracked throughout the school year through this app.
