Harvest in the Heights formerly known as Early California Days (ECD) is the primary fundraiser for the parish. The Carnival is now held in October and is the largest community event in the area, requiring an average of 700 workers per day. Those attending enjoy exciting rides, games, live entertainment, and great food! Come play Bingo, take a chance at the Grand Raffle, browse through the Country Store and bid at the Silent Auction. The carnival is a great opportunity to spend time in community, getting to know each other, and giving of ourselves to help our parish. Come and share moments of excitement and joy with the whole family! |
