CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) – Fieldstone Place hosted a Back to School Indoor Carnival in July for families in the Clarksville community to enjoy. Grandparents, parents, and their children participated in traditional carnival activities like ring toss, face painting, fishing pond, and a magic show – and in non-traditional carnival activities like golf and a photo booth.
The goal was to provide family fun while collecting school supply donations for students and teachers.
The carnival was a huge success with items donated ranging from backpacks and folders to dry erase markers and hand sanitizers.
On Thursday, August 17th, all the donations were compiled and presented to Barksdale Elementary School. Fieldstone hopes to make this an annual event and to collect enough donations for multiple schools.
Carnival games and donations were sponsored by local businesses: Right at Home, Asera Care Hospice, Walking Horse Meadows, Gracie Barra Clarksville, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy, Amedisys, Spring Meadows, Dogwood Bend, and the YMCA.
