Every year Lietz has a spring carnival.  This year the event will be held on

April 24, 2026 @ 4pm – 7pm

Contact: carnival@lietzhsc.com

Join us for fun and excitement! This is a community event.  Feel free to bring your whole family, friends, neighbors, etc.

There are many opportunities to get involved with the Spring Carnival! The event would not be successful without the help of our community.

  • Help! → Sign up to give your much appreciated time to help with such things as setup, food sales, or to run games
  • Loan! → Sign up to loan items such as extension cords and coolers
  • Donate! → Sign up to donate items such as prizes, cupcakes, drinks, candy, or snacks
  • We LOVE to have highschoolers assist with this event as well; we can provide a letter for community service hours after the event by request (carnival@lietzhsc.com). Note that the inflatables and the popcorn machine require an adult 18+.
  • Please encourage friends and family members to help out! 

Thank you to all of our volunteers and contributors. Volunteer check in booth is across from the cafeteria; arrive here first to understand where your activity/booth is located, get directions and have your questions answered. We greatly appreciate your support!
