Meandering w/ Mark Matthews: Bellmawr's Biggest Carnival on NOW!
Wednesday, May 09, 2012
The true start of summer is here, Bellmawr's St Joachim's (Annunciation) Carnival is on RIGHT NOW!
I've been attending these carnivals for decades, and after stopping there tonight... this is definately the biggest one yet. The rides wrap around the side of the school offering many more fun things for kids of all ages. But honestly, it looks like someone was looking out for the upper elementary ages kids as there are more "big" rides than ever, including my personal favorite... Zipper.
And for Thurs, Friday and Saturday... the rain is set to move out and looks like sunny and 70s all three days.
Besides the great rides, the carnival features many games of chance including the favorites; ring toss, Whack a mole, and even Skee-Ball!
Great carnival snacks like cotton candy can be found in the main fairgrounds, but over around the left side of the school is where the real food is. Funnel Cakes, Pizza, Hamburgers and more... and its all located conveniently next to the beer garden!
Yes, the beer garden is back, and so is the great rock entertainment of Stage 3! These guys know how to put on a show! Guitars, keyboards, multiple singers and great lighting... this is not your regular bar-band!
There are videos on Youtube of Stage 3 at last year's carnival... here is one Right Now
So with the awesome weather coming up for the rest of the carnival, make sure you grab the family and head on over the Bellmawr Carnival.
