Fun, Fun, Fun at Operation School Supplies!


What a great day it's been so far at Operation School Supplies 08. We had people in line at 5:30 this morning waiting for us to open our doors at 9:00. Things have run very smooth so far and tons of kids are getting everything they need for back to school. By the end of the day, close to 2000 kids will get their school supplies and a backpack as well as their back to school haircuts, school immunizations, dental screenings, vision screenings, as well as all kinds of free give a ways from Boys and Girl Club. In addition to all that, every social service organization in town has a booth set up at the resource fair with information about all the different programs and services that are available to kids and families. Heck, we've even got Tubby the Clown here again this year making balloon animals and entertaining the kids. What a great day! Thank God for the opportunity to be an agent of hope and love to the families of our community today!
