Carnival and Raffle Return to St. Patrick's

The Ferris Wheel. Bumper Cars. Cotton Candy. Sausage and Peppers. Everyone’s favorite rides and fun foods return to the St. Patrick's Parish Carnival, to be held on the grounds of St. Patrick’s School in Bedford, NY, May 13-18, 2014.

The annual event, which celebrates 40 years this year, is a fundraiser for educational and charitable ministries of the Parish and includes a raffle. This year's prize is the choice of either a 2014 Ford F150 Truck, a 2014 Ford Fusion Sedan or $25,000 cash. 

“We are so excited to be able to offer participants the choice of two very popular -- and different -- automobiles,” said Carnival Co-Chair Jim Alloy. “We hope that the community will be excited to participate in the chance to win one of these vehicle while supporting a great cause.”
