REGISTRATION CLOSES WEDNESDAY, JULY 31, 2019.
The Back to School Fair is open to businesses and community groups as a means to reach our families in one place at one time. It is also intended to help our lower-income families as we distribute thousands of dollars’ worth of free school supplies at the event. Last year's event drew over 3,500 people and we gave away over $9,600 in free school supplies. It is a great event and the registration fee for businesses is only $60 ($85 if you need access to electricity). Those fees are used directly to purchase school supplies that are given to students in bags at the Fair. Provided with your registration are one table, two chairs, and a sign. We ask that you bring your own skirting for your table. Additional tables are available for $30.
Registration for non-profit groups is only $10 ($35 if you need access to electricity) and we ask that you provide a free school supply to hand out to students at your booth. Provided with your registration are one table, two chairs, and a sign. We ask that you bring your own skirting for your table.
The event is free for District families and will feature dozens of vendors (last year 130 vendors participated), free school supplies, games and fun activities for children. MoCHIP will be on hand once again this year to provide free child identification kits for children. In addition, St. Charles County Ambulance District is providing an opportunity for kids to put together a free first aid kit.
"The Back to School Fair is designed to bring together local businesses, community groups, and our District families in one place to share valuable information, discounts and free school supplies in a fun and festive atmosphere," said Chief Communications Officer Mary LaPak. "It is beneficial to our families and our community and it's a tremendous way to kick off the new school year."
Those attending, as well as event vendors, are encouraged to bring a non-perishable food item to donate at the door to Operation Food Search which serves local families in need.
