Back to School Bash this Sunday

Branson's First Baptist Church is making heading back to school a little easier for area families with their annual Back to School Bash.

Set for this Sunday, the Back to School Bash will feature fun for the entire family, including inflatables, games, face painting, balloon animals, crafts, swimming and more. Those in attendance will enjoy free hot dogs, chips and popsicles. An exciting motorcycle and BMX Stunt Show is one of the highlights of the evening event.

Students will also receive a free backpack, filled with school supplies needed to make this school year a success.

This is the 19th year that First Baptist Church has hosted the Back to School Bash. During that time, the church members and a large number of dedicated volunteers have given away 27,000 backpacks full of school supplies and served up 36,000 hotdogs to area children and their families, as well as shared the love of God with all who attended.

This year's Back to School Bash is sponsored by Branson Bank, Linkability, My 100.1, 102.9 The Z, Branson 4U 98.1, Casey's, Kanakuk Kamp, Legends 106.3, Bank of Missouri, First Community Bank, Dr. Travis Brawner of Ozark Mountain ENT, Chick-fil-A and the Branson Globe.

The FBC Back to School Bash will be held on Sunday, August 3, from 5 to 8 p.m. at the Branson Rec Plex. Admission is free, and food items and backpacks are free, while supplies last. The Branson Rec Plex is located at 1501 Branson Hills Parkway.
