Carnival








































































































































































































































Fun in the Sun!










































Over the years, Franklin has had countless carnivals that always seem to bring students and staff together. The carnivals always seem to consist of nice weather, fun games, and yummy food and this year was no exception. The sun was beaming and everybody looked like they were having a great time soaking up the sun. The dunk tank was a huge attraction as people paid to dunk teachers, like Ms. Moore, Mrs. Beeber, and even students like senior Bailee Jurgenson and junior Derrick Pleasant. The bounce house was set up, and many of the underclassmen seemed to enjoy bouncing around with one another. To keep cool, many students had wild water fights. There was also an egg toss, where you had the chance to win $5. The winners were juniors Autumn Morgan and Ryan Short.
The carnival was mainly a way for clubs to raise money; each club sold something different. There were hot dogs, pizza, hamburgers, crepes, elephant ears, and even face paining! For cold foods, there was shaved ice that the key club sold and gelato that the yearbook staff sold.
Over the years, the carnivals have changed. The carnivals used to be in conjunction with the May Fete assembly. Now it’s mainly a way to raise money. Mr. Hill, who has taught at Franklin for over a decade, and also attended as a student says “the carnivals are always a blast! It gives teachers an opportunity to relate with their students outside of class. You get to see people in a different aspect.” With everything combined, the food and the different activities brought everyone together to have a great time.
