St. Paul’s Lutheran Church and School will hold its annual fall carnival on Saturday, Nov. 6 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. The event is open to the public and will include a rock climbing wall, food from Gloria’s Bar-B-Q, video games, a live rock band and spray-on tattoos designed by a clown. The event takes place at the church, located at 1376 Felspar St. “The mission of the fall carnival is to not only have a good time but to raise our profile in the community,” said carnival organizer Mint Arella. Arella’s son, a sixth-grader at St. Paul’s, is donating the use of his gaming system for the event. Arella also has a first-grader at St. Paul’s. The United Studios of Self Defense is one of the sponsors of the carnival and will be teaching self-defense moves throughout the day. “They are doing an interactive demonstration,” Arella said. “Rather than have people watch them, it’s more of a community service to teach them something they can take with them that day.” The carnival would not, however, be complete without a dunk tank. Schoolchildren and neighbors will be able to purchase tickets to dunk Principal Fred Friedrichs into the chilly waters of the tank. All proceeds from the event go back into the school. Admission to the carnival is free, but games and food will have “family-friendly” prices. For more information, visit www.stpaulspb.com.
