Registration begins for Back to School Bash

The 2016-2017 school year is winding down, and the staff of Upper Des Moines Opportunity Inc. is already planning the August Back to School Bash.

The event will be held Aug. 15 at Crossroads Mall, according to an announcement from the agency. During the event, backpacks and school supplies will be given to children from families who meet income eligibility guidelines.

Families that want to receive backpacks and school supplies need to register with the agency long before the Back to School Bash.

Applications can be picked up at the Upper Des Moines Opportunity Inc. Outreach Office at 113 S. 10th St.

Completed applications will be accepted beginning Thursday. Applications must be submitted by July 28.
