The carnival is actually run by kids, with help from the counselors, and there will plenty of activities, such as face painting and a cake walk. A food booth will have hog dogs and cotton candy.

Yum.

The children, who have worked with their counselors to prepare their booths, will take turns throughout the evening taking tickets, running the booths and giving out prizes, giving them team-building skills along the way. Tickets for the games cost 10 cents each, and raffle tickets are a dollar.
