What is the Fall Festival Street Fair?
The Brown PTSA Fall Festival Street Fair is the main fundraiser for Brown PTSA. This helps provide funding for events we do during the year. This includes family nights, teacher appreciation week, Kentucky Kids Day, and other programming the PTSA funds. This does not only provide funding for the PTSA events but also for the many school groups that are running the gaming booths. The PTSA provides the games and prizes and all the money the booth raises goes to the student group. Past Groups include: Cheerleaders, HSA, Yearbook, Baseball team, and Golf Team.
We will be shutting down 1st street from Muhammad Ali to Chestnut. We will have a stage that will showcase some of the student groups. There will be music in between student performances. There will be food trucks to enjoys for dinner and games for all ages to play. We will also have a silent auction and a raffle inside. The Brown School Alumni also hold a silent auction to support student scholarships.
It will be chaotic fun for everyone. Bring your chairs and hang out with the Brown School Family.
Want on the Committee - email us.
Putting on the Fall Festival is a huge undertaking and we need lots of volunteers.
Sign up for a shift to help us put this together.
