This year's perk at the Saxonburg Carnival: free admission
Plans for the annual Saxonburg Carnival have come together at the last minute with a bonus for attendees: no admission fee.
The carnival materialized later than usual this year after it initially was called off at the beginning of the year.
The event was canceled last year, and ongoing coronavirus guidance has led the organizers, the Saxonburg Volunteer Fire Company, to make a few changes this time around.
While it will be a little smaller than usual, the carnival will be free of charge this year.
“Because of the sponsorships, we are able to have free gates,” said Paul Donaldson, chairman of event arnival. “With the year everyone has been having, we tried to put something together that would be enjoyable for the kids.”
