St Jude Carnival

St Jude Catholic Church (SJCC) will host its annual carnival September 9-11. Talley Amusements, Inc. will once again bring their exciting midway, kiddie and thrill rides and of course the beloved carnival food! St Jude's traditional courtyard activities and games will take place on Saturday the 10th, and will combine to offer a unique and unforgettable family carnival experience. Please note that Talley Amusements, Inc. and the Saturday parish activities will require separate ticket purchases. Food purchases are cash only for Talley Amusements. Back by popular demand is the "Friday night only Unlimited Rides"--$30 wrist band. Visit our website for pre-sales info. There will be ATM machines on the premise.

Saturday is a great day to visit carnival sponsors while participating in parish fun for all ages: musical acts, raffle prizes, silent auction, cake walk, face painting, Allen Police Department Command Center, Allen Fire Department/EMS, food from the Knights of Columbus, rock wall, and a large variety of inflatables by Jumper Bee Entertainment. The fun will continue with the Maylee Thomas Band from 8-10 pm.

The Talley Midway will be open Friday 5-11 pm; Saturday noon-11 pm and Sunday 1-10 pm. St Jude Parish Courtyard will be open on Saturday from 1 - 7:30 pm, followed by the concert at 8 pm. On Sunday the 11th, celebrate the 35th anniversary of St Jude in the courtyard with an art show and live entertainment as the Talley midway continues.
