Back To School

If you know of any other after school activities in Yakima, please let me know in the comments!

School starts for most of the schools in the Yakima Valley this week. It's a great time to remind drivers to be aware of the school zones. They've been empty the past couple of months ... but obviously that's about to change.

The Love Project Yakima has teamed up with the HQ Barbershop in Yakima to offer 50 free haircuts to 50 boys in the community! A drawing for the cuts will be taking place this Sunday (Aug. 26), so please take the time to share this with a family you think would be perfect for this free service!

The Elks Lodge #318 is hosting another free schools supply distribution! Child must be present to receive supplies.

Some schools are allowing resource officers to carry tasers. A few parents are raising a stink about it, but some are completely OK with it.
