UC Family Connection has been able to participate each year of the Backpack 2 School Bash and this 8th year was amazing! 456 children are set for the start of school. Families enjoyed a “shopping” experience for supplies, lunch, popcorn, snow cones, crafts, face painting, bounce houses and the support of a community during this special day. A new addition this year was the Lions Club, who gave free vision screenings for children and adults! Thanks to the generosity of The Backpack 2 School Bash, all supplies left at the end of the day will be available at the Family Connection office. If you missed the event and are still in need, please call us at 706-835-4351, so we can prepare a book bag for your students.
