Join For the Kid in All of Us and Presenting Sponsor Intercontinental Hotels Group for the 4th annual Backpack in the Park!
Sunday, June 28
4 – 8pm
Pavilions at Historic Grant Park
The back-to-school benefit is a community picnic and fundraiser, collecting backpacks, filled with school supplies, to be donated to underprivileged Georgia children. Thanks to your generous support, last year’s event yielded more than 900 backpacks for area school children. This year’s goal is 1,200 backpacks so we need your help to reach our goal!
Come join the fun, dance to the music of DJ Chris Griswold, and enjoy food from Metrotainment Cafés and On the Border Mexican Grill. In addition, there will be activities for children of ALL ages including a High-Striker Strength Challenge and the return of the Robo-Surfer! Come catch a wave!
You can find a printable list of requested school supplies and directions to the event here.
