Second Annual Back To School Bash Returns To Heritage Park

After last year's success, this fun event returns...

The Plymouth-Canton Community Schools, with support from Canton Leisure Services, is helping families kick off fall and the back-to-school season by hosting the Second Annual Back to School Bash on Saturday, August 25 from 1 to 4 p.m. in Canton’s Heritage Park.

This free event will offer a variety of student performances and showcases. In addition, local schools and community groups, clubs, and area resource centers will be onsite providing valuable information to position your children for success in the coming school year.

“There will be something for everyone at this year’s P-CCS Party in the Park, as we gear up for the fall season in preparation of heading back to school,” said Jennifer Girard, Recreation Specialist. “We certainly look forward to another enriching and productive school year in the Canton community.”

Participants can also enjoy food, games, and special activities. Area residents are also encouraged to join the EEF Quest 4 Excellence, which will be held from 2-4 p.m., where teams of two-four (adults and children) will attempt to conquer six challenges around Heritage Park to win fun prizes! Teams who pre-register will also receive an event T-Shirt. This special competition for families is held each year to raise funds for the Educational Excellence Foundation.

Building on last year’s success, this exciting tradition offers plenty of family fun, as well as useful information and resources. For more information about the P-CCS Party in the Park Back to School Bash, call 734/394-5460 or visit www.cantonfun.org.
