Adult Volunteers Needed for Fun Fair – Stoney Creek’s Biggest Fundraiser & Community Event! Stoney Creek’s Fun Fair (school carnival) is just around the corner, and we need your help to make it a success! This is our school’s largest fundraiser of the year, and every dollar raised goes straight back to Stoney Creek to support important school initiatives and resources that benefit all of our students.

We’re lucky to have a great group of high school volunteers helping to run the stations, but we still need adult volunteers to help supervise and keep things running smoothly. If you can spare even just 1 hour of your time, it would make a huge difference!

A big shout-out to our amazing Fun Fair committee (made up of Stoney parents!) who have been working tirelessly behind the scenes to plan, shop, and organize this event. We couldn’t do it without them — or without you!

Thanks so much for your support!

Pre-orders are half-dozen or a dozen donuts and can be picked up at the Community Room on Friday, May 23 between 3:00 and 3:30 pm. The deadline for orders is Wednesday, May 21st at 11:59 pm. Payment will be at pick up (card only!). Click here to add your pre-orders to the list. Note that Lee’s Donuts will also have a table selling donuts during the Fun Fair.
