Sponsorships Available for St. Patrick's Carnival

Your name here ...

... or it could be! The fun returns as the Carnival comes to St. Patrick’s School in Bedford, NY, May 13 to 18, 2014. One way local families and business can be a part of the fun -- besides going down the giant slide or riding the giant swing -- is to have their name included as an event sponsor. 

Why be a sponsor? The annual event, which celebrates 40 years this year, is an important fundraiser for the educational and charitable ministries of St. Patrick’s Parish. It attracts thousands of attendees from the area and represents a significant customer base for local businesses.

There are three individual sponsorship levels offered: Bronze ($50), Silver ($100) and Gold $200. The three levels will have their names displayed on the wall in front of the school throughout Carnival Week. Silver and Gold sponsors also have their names repeated in a short audio message delivered on the PA system throughout the week. In addition, businesses may also Sponsor a Ride, with a 2 foot by 3 foot sign displayed on the fencing surrounding a ride for $250. 

Anyone interested in sponsoring the Carnival should contact the St. Patrick’s Parish Office at (914) 234-3344 or email the sponsorship chairs, Warren and Jeanne Elliott, at warrenELL@msn.com.
