The Livingston County Children’s Wellness Committee will host the 16th Annual Back to School Bonanza on Tuesday, July 30th in the North Gym of the Grand River YMCA, located at 1725 Locust Street in Chillicothe.
The Livingston County Back to School Bonanza is open to Livingston County residents only entering Kindergarten -12th grade. There are no financial requirements.
Parents must register students for the event online at https://tinyurl.com/ChilliB2SB2024 in order to receive a free backpack and school supplies. All registrations are due on Sunday, July 14.
School supplies may only be picked up on Tuesday, July 30,2024, between 11:00 am – 1:00 pm & 3:00 pm – 6:00 pm during the Back to School Bonanza.
New this year, from 3:00 pm – 6:00 pm, the Livingston County Health Center is partnering with MU ParentLink to present “Family Fun Fest,” an event to connect families with valuable resources and services and have fun with their kids making memories.
In addition to the booths, there will be snacks, face painting, vision screenings, a strolling entertainer doing magic tricks, balloon tying and juggling, giveaways, a drawing for two bicycles, and more.
This community event would not be possible without the generous support of local businesses, grants and individuals.
Since the event now includes Livingston County students in all grades, more funds are needed to purchase school supplies. Anyone interested in contributing should contact Jessica Trussell at 646-0811.
