School is quickly approaching and the store aisles are filled with pencils, markers, paper and folders. Students are savoring the days left of summer vacation with bike rides, trips to the pool and binging on Netflix. Riverside Christian Church has the fellowship hall stocked with school supplies to hand out at the annual Antwerp School Supply Project Giveaway on August 12th, 12:00-3:00 p.m. at the building. All registered students will be provided with a backpack full of the needed school supplies designated by the school for their grade. Items not included in school supplies include: gym shoes and headphones. Walk-ins will be welcome that day from 2:00-3:00 p.m. and supplies will be available on a first come, first served basis.
If you still need to register your child(ren) for the giveaway, it’s not too late! Text Angel at 419-258-0656 or email at theangel_mom@yahoo.com with the kids’ names and grades and a contact name and phone number to be added to the registration list.
