LeFlore County Healthy Coalition is already preparing for this year’s Back to School Bash (BTSB) to be held July 30th.
This year LeFlore County Healthy Coalition and other community organizations plan to fill and give away 600 packpacks. Each backpack will contain 3 pencils, 1 box of Crayola Crayons, 1 pair scissors, 2 large glue sticks, 1 supply box, 2 poly pocket folders, 1 set of inexpensive headphones, 1 three subject spiral notebook, 1 composition Journal notebook, and 2 pencil top erasers.
Teri Krebs, Executive Director of LeFlore County Youth Services (LCYS), said, “We need to raise almost $3800 to cover the cost of the backpack supplies. We have found some great prices and need to get these things ordered to get here in time for the event.” She needs to know by 10 AM Thursday, June 13th if you can help with the purchase of the school supplies.
If you want to help sponsor the cost of the backpack supplies, contact Krebs at 918-647-4196.
LeFlore County Healthy Coalition is also taking applications for organizations, community agencies, and individuals to set up a booth at the event. Please see the registration form below if you are interested in setting up a booth or call Krebs at 918-647-4196.
