2026 Silent Auction Is Open Early

In order to ensure everyone has an opportunity to participate, including family and friends who may not be physically at the carnival, the silent auction will be open the entire month of April leading up to the carnival on May 1st.

There are a number of tangible and non-tangible items up for bid - both types of items will be added throughout the month, so check back often to get your early bids in.

Besides the tangible items up for bid, such as all-day passes to amusements, sports league registration vouchers and gift packages to local restaurants, there are a number of intangible items that will be put up for bid. These are experiences provided by NH staff and community members who volunteer their time and resources to raise funds for the NH PTA. The first of these has already been listed - VIP parking at next year's Festival of Learning. The Mortimer family won the bidding for this last year and will avoid all the hassle of finding parking on the busy event night. Could it be you next year?

2026 Carnival & Silent Auction Committees

The school carnival happens every spring. It is a HUGE volunteer event and brings lots of people from the community into the school. It's also a ton of fun for the parents and the kids. 

Volunteer slots include committee leads to booth volunteers, from the food and games to clean up crews at night after the event. The carnival needs about 150 volunteers! Watch for announcements for the sign up genius put out by the Carnival committee in the Spring. Sign up for a shift and spend the rest of the time enjoying the carnival! Or let us know you are interested in volunteering to be on the Carnival Committee!
