About This Event
Get ready, Carleton Terrace Neighbors! Our first ever Oktoberfest is coming to the park! Join us on Saturday, October 18th, from 3:30–6:30 PM at Carleton Terrace Community Park for an afternoon full of food, music, and fun.
We’re serving up HOME MADE German favorites – Bratwurst, pretzels sauerkraut and more. Kid-friendly hot dogs and chips will also be available. Sweet treats from our bake sale and drinks (wine, beer, and non-alcoholic options) will keep the festive spirit going.
The main event? Bingo with big prizes! Play for everything from gift cards and themed baskets to sponsor-donated big ticket items. Don’t forget the 50/50 raffle and yard games to add to the fun.
Live music from fellow neighbor JD Wayne on guitar will set the Oktoberfest mood, and neighbors can mingle, laugh, and enjoy the fall evening together.
Come hungry, bring friends, and let’s raise funds for our community while having a blast.
Parking
We will be running pickup between 3:30pm-4:00pm, and drop off at the end of the event between 6:00pm-6:30pm. The golf cart can only hold 3 people at a time.
We ask that you request transportation only if it is needed so that the golf cart doesn’t get too taxed getting up and down the steep hill.

Bingo
How Bingo Will Work
During Oktoberfest, we’ll be hosting a minimum of 10 bingo games, each offering a different prize for the winner. Every round will feature a unique way to win — from the classic straight line to fun variations like four corners, postage stamp, and full card blackout.
Players can purchase bingo cards in advance or at the event. There will be an opportunity to increase your odds with the option to purchase additional Bingo cards for $1. Each game will be called separately, with a new chance to win every time. Once a prize is awarded, we’ll clear the boards and start fresh for the next round.
Prizes
Thanks to our amazing sponsors, each round of Bingo will have a prize worth $100 or more! Be ready to win big with gift certificates for massages, restaurants and fun baskets full of goodies!
Cost
$30 for initial pack of 10 Bingo cards.
$1 for additional cards to be sold at the beginning of each game.

Volunteers
Why Volunteers Matter
Oktoberfest wouldn’t be possible without volunteers. These events take a whole team to pull off, from preparing food and setting up tables to selling tickets and calling out bingo numbers. Every role, big or small, contributes to creating a smooth, welcoming, and enjoyable experience for our neighbors and their guests.
Volunteers are the heart of community events. They help us raise money for projects that benefit everyone, while also keeping costs low so more of the funds go directly back into the park. Most importantly, volunteers bring energy, connection, and a sense of togetherness that makes the event special.
When you give your time, you’re not just helping for a few hours — you’re building a stronger community.
Here are a few areas that volunteers are needed:
Setup Crew (tables, chairs, decorations, sound system)
Cleanup Crew (tables, trash, breakdown)
Golf Cart Taxi Drivers (helping neighbors down to the park and back up the hill)
View the whole list of volunteer roles needed and sign up accordingly! The more volunteers we have, the more we can all enjoy the event!
