The Bon Voyage Festival readies for Pep Rally!

Welcome Back!

We hope you all had a wonderful Easter and Spring Break, and that you’re ready to bring your renewed enthusiasm to the rest of the school year! We have so many exciting events coming up, including the Pep Rally, the Campout Sign Contest and Festival Wear Pop-Up at Campout, and of course, our Patronage Raffle for the FIRST CLASS to reach 100% participation!

The Patronage competition is heating up:

Kindergarten is leading at 91% — wow!
4th grade is close behind at 86%
7th grade holds third place at 65%

Patronage is a vital part of our Festival fundraising. Festival proceeds help fund everything from campus improvements and safety upgrades to student activities and it all starts with Patronage. All of our grades are soaring, and we are beyond grateful!

Our Patronage Donations are soaring to new heights but we need your help to reach cruising altitude!

Donate to Patronage

We are off to a great start with our patronage donations, but don’t forget to donate here to help your class be the first one to 100%. You never know, you may be lucky enough to win 2 or 3 free nights at campout!

Have you ever wanted to have your name on a monument?

A Platinum Passport donation of $5000 and above will earn your family continuous recognition throughout Festival weekend in the main tent.

Those that embark on The Grand Odyssey, with a donation of $7500 or above, will have their name prominently displayed on one of our St. Paul Festival Monuments—a.k.a. the thrilling rides we all love, along with exclusive gifts in your in-flight gratitude package!

Calling all Artistes!!

Let your creativity flow and bring the spirit of Bon Voyage to life with your Campout family sign.

Here is how it works:

1. Make a sign. Before heading to the campgrounds, get your family together and make a sign for your tent/cabin/RV/yurt.

2. What to include. The sign should include your family name and have something to do with this year's festival theme: Bon Voyage!

3. The judges. A panel of judges will view all family signs and select 5 winners (1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, and 2 special awards).

4. The winners. Winners will be announced during the Campout Talent Show and receive some fantastic PRIZES!

We can’t wait to see your masterpieces!
