The City of Bowie Gymnasium, located at 4100 Northview Drive, will host the 2013 Back to School Bash on August 17, 2013 from 10 am to 1 pm. This year the Back to School Bash will be turning 10 years old. Please come out and help us celebrate! The planned events include free family demonstrations, carnival games, moon bounces, a community resource area featuring local vendors, and a backpack give-away. The first 300 school aged children, between the ages of 4 years old and 11 years old, registered on the day of the event will receive a free backpack full of school supplies that are donated by community sponsors.
The Kane Company will be providing free shredding services and computer (monitors, CPUs, printers) recycling at the event. There's no limit to the amount of shredding that will be accepted, the only requirement is that it be the papers belong to an invididual or a home-based business, rather than other commercial entities.
