What is Hoot Carnival?

Fall is in the air and that means it’s time for Hoot Carnival which is just that - a fall carnival!  A PTA-organized event that is the perfect opportunity for our entire HP community to come together for an afternoon of fun, games, food and to make some unforgettable HP memories!  This tradition reaches back seven decades to the first PTA Halloween celebration in October 1952!

What’s new this year?
  • Fun & Games - We listened to the valuable feedback from our staff and HP community and are bringing the fun this year with some tweaks!  Check out all the activities here.
  • Wristbands for everyone - want to experience all the thrills, from the Giant Slide and Haunted House to classic carnival games? Grab an all access wristband to enjoy all the fun!  New this year, we have wristbands for adults as well as Tiny Scotties/Pre-K kiddos
           $30 Scottie/Child advance pricing, $40 day of the event
          
$10 Tiny Scottie (sibling who is in Pre-K) or Pre-K guest
          
$10 Adult* (to enjoy all the fun with your kiddo(s) including the Giant Slide, Haunted House & more!
            
*adults don’t need a wristband to attend the event, ONLY to enjoy rides and games with your kids

         
Wristband scholarships available via the Scottie Support Fund here

  • Sponsorships - Has your family sponsored Hoot in the past? This year, we’re excited to introduce a new, streamlined approach to “family sponsorships.” We understand the challenges of repeated asks throughout the year, and we want to make it easier for you to support our cherished HP traditions through Scotties Family Circle. This opportunity is NOT associated with Hoot, specifically, but we invite families interested in making a one-time donation of $500 and above to reach out to Cheyenne Moore, our VP of Fundraising, at [email protected] to learn more
  • We changed things up a bit for our volunteers this year.  We want our caregivers to relax and enjoy the event, so we have invited our larger HP community and vertical teams to run the activities!  
    If you are really eager to help, we would love to have you sign up for our day of needs.
  • Parade of Pumpkins Auction - a huge thank you to all the caregivers who have signed up to decorate pumpkins for our annual auction.  This year, the auction will be held AFTER the Hoot Carnival. Stay tuned for more details!
