The annual Back to School Bash for Winn Parish children, sponsored by Caring & Sharing in Unity and the Winn Healthy Initiatives Coalition, will be held at the Winnfield Civic Center on Friday, July 26.
Doors open at 10 a.m. and close at 1 p.m. In addition to school supplies and hygiene packs, door prizes, music and entertainment, hotdog lunches and bounce houses, many service organizations will have representatives on hand to provide information to the public about the programs and services they offer.
Some of those include the Winn Parish Library, Winn Parish School Board, Winn Parish Medical Center, Winn Community Health Center, Winn Parish Sheriff’s office, and numerous other organizations serving our community. Anyone with a school age child will benefit from the offerings and information available at this event!
Assistance with assembling hygiene kits that will be given out at the back to school event to be held this Friday is needed. Assembly on the hygiene kits will be tomorrow morning (Wednesday 7/24) from 9:30 until 11:30 at Laurel Heights Baptist Church fellowship hall. The assembly will continue on Thursday morning at 9:00. Hopefully the project will be completed before noon on Thursday. If you have time to lend a hand on Wednesday, Thursday, or both days please contact Mary Lou Blackley (318-481-0227) or Shonna Moss (318-628-0169).
