To Backpacks and Beyond: Launching Students Toward Success

Saturday, July 11
9:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.
Placentia Civic Center Plaza

Blast off into the new school year at our fun-filled Build Your Own Backpack event, held in partnership with Karina’s Backpack Project! Children and teens ages 4–18 can fill their own backpacks with school supplies to help them start the school year feeling confident, prepared, and ready to succeed. The fun doesn’t stop there! Enjoy music, food, face painting, wellness classes, STEAM activities and crafts for all ages. This exciting community celebration is designed to inspire learning, movement, creativity, and connection before the school year begins. Come celebrate the new school year with us and launch into success together!

Children must be present to receive backpacks. Supplies are limited and will be distributed while supplies last. Limit one backpack per child.
