2025 Fun Fair: Thank You for Making It Unforgettable!

What a joyful day of community, celebration, and blessing!

On September 25, we welcomed over 1,200 attendees to our annual Fun Fair — and we are still filled with gratitude for the energy, laughter, and togetherness that flowed through our school grounds all day long.

From the first warm welcome to the final clean-up, God’s goodness was on full display — through each smiling face, each act of service, and each moment of connection. Whether you volunteered, attended, donated, or prayed for the event, your presence helped create a day that truly reflected the heart of our NCS community.

A heartfelt thank you to:

• Attendees - Your energy, smiles, and participation made the day magical. Thank you for showing up in such strong numbers and for bringing so much joy to every part of the fair.

• Volunteers - You were the heroes behind the scenes — and often right in the middle of the action! Over 200 volunteer shifts were filled by dedicated parents, grandparents, and students who cooked, cleaned, baked, painted, set up, tore down, supervised, cheered, and did it all with incredible spirit. We’re endlessly grateful.

• Donors & Sponsors - Your generous contributions helped offset event costs and made it possible to offer so much to our community. Every cupcake, cash donation, and loaned item played a part!

A few extra special shout outs:

• Volunteer organizing committee – Larissa Sevenhuysen, Aimee Rounding, and Karen Kangas – for prayerfully planning and leading with servant hearts.

• The Deibert family – for donating hot dog buns and helping us feed the crowd!

• School Board – for barbecuing, recruiting society members, and gathering feedback on future campus plans 

• Grandparents Group – who served cotton candy with big smiles and kind hearts.

• Vendors – Inflatafun and Romper Room – for creating laughter-filled zones of excitement for the kids.

• Special guests – Marigold the therapy dog and Benson our NCS Panther mascot, who added extra joy and delight to the day.

We’re incredibly thankful for the enthusiasm, generosity, and community spirit that made this year’s Fun Fair such a huge success. You reminded us once again of the power of coming together, having fun, and supporting each other.

We already can’t wait to do it all again next year — see you at the 2026 Fun Fair!
