YES - the EMXC Youth Carnival is HAPPENING! We've made some adjustments to the format this year to account for the cold temperatures and a truncated timeline. It will be cold, and that's ok! Come dressed with layers for a great morning of fun. The sun will be out, the music will be playing, and we'll have hot cocoa and face glitter for all!
