It’s Back! The Hackettstown High School’s Mardi Gras Mini-Carnival to Benefit The Arc of Warren County

by | Feb 10, 2025

Mark the Calendars for This Family-Friendly Event for March 8, 2025

The Hackettstown High School’s Key Club will be holding a Mini-Carnival to benefit The Arc of Warren County from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the new gym at the back of the High School (located at 599 Warren Street in Hackettstown). This event had been a major staple for the Hackettstown community for more than 20 years but had to take a five-year hiatus after Covid-19.
 
This year’s theme, “Mardi Gras,” is designed for families with elementary school aged children.  Activities will include crafts, games and more.  The Mount Olive Kiwanis Club will sponsor a concession stand for attendees. The Arc of Warren County’s Self-Advocates will conduct a craft with attendees. Donaldson Farms, the Centenary University Alumni Association and the Centenary Entrepreneurial Institute will be present. The Hackettstown High School Spring musical cast will be performing, and additional high school clubs will be represented.
 
“The members of The Arc of Warren County community and myself are thankful for the dedication that the Hackettstown High School’s Key Club has had for our organization for more than 25 years,” says John Whitehead, CEO of The Arc of Warren County.  “A special thank you to the Key Club Advisor Kaitlyn McSweeney for ensuring that this opportunity continues after not being about to take place for several years. This event proves to be a fun, inexpensive day for families while also supporting the individuals who receive services from the Agency.”
 
Admission is $3 for children ages 3 and older and activity tickets will be sold at 50 cents per game.  Children must be accompanied by an adult.
