Monster Bash is MES PTA’s annual fall carnival for students, families, and the neighborhood. Join us at Morningside Elementary for costumes, games, rides, Chick-fil-a, a bake sale, the 5th-grade haunted house, and so much more seasonal fun!
This is a family togetherness type of event and all children pre-K to 8th grade must come with an adult. This is not a drop off event.
Kids can enjoy indoor and outdoor activities including inflatables, carnival type rides, a climbing wall, face painting, balloon artists, a magician, DJ music, a photo booth, a quiet DIY art station, and activity tables hosted by local businesses. There’s even a haunted house designed and acted by 5th graders that promises to be a scream!
Food will be available for purchase from the Chick-fil-A tent, including vegetarian options. The bake sale will offer sweet treats, with limited gluten-free options, and 100% of the proceeds will benefit the PTA Dolphins Do Good holiday grocery card initiative.
