FFS 257: EVENT IDEA: Carnival Themed VBS

Today on the podcast, Sean and Makenna discuss the carnival themed VBS that Elevate ran this last summer. During the week long VBS preteens created their own carnival booths, took a trip to a real-life carnival – the California state fair, and held their own carnival at the end of the week. Sean and Makenna discuss the details of the week including a clown university that didn’t go as well as they would have hoped. The week ended with a fundraiser on Sunday after church where the kids were able to show off their carnival booths. It was a great opportunity for the church to see what was happening during the week at camp.
