Back to School Corner🎒
Football🏈
The best time of year is right around the corner – football season. Soon it’ll be time to create your fantasy team, plan a football party or two, fire up the grill and gather with friends and family around the TV. Embrace the football season with the following ideas:
- Host a football party. See what’s trending this year, don’t miss out on → Amazon Football Party Essentials
- Attend a local NFL Football game.
- Support and cheer on a local high school football game.
- Make Sunday’s special by making a croc pot dip, grilling and inviting family over to enjoy the game.
- Let someone else do the cooking and find a sports bar and grill showing the game. Get there early to get a good table!
School Supplies✂️
Between the cost of new clothes, school supplies, backpacks and lunch boxes it all adds up pretty quickly. Use these resources to help with the cost of back to school this year.
- If you are a military family, keep an eye out for Homefront Operation’s ‘Back to School Brigade’ Event to take home free school supplies.
- Reach out to your Childs school and teacher for local events offering free school supplies.
- The Salvation Army teams up with local partners every year to give away backpacks full of school supplies. Search Salvationarmyusa.org to ask about their upcoming events.

- Plan out how you want to tackle lunches and dinners for the upcoming semester. (Pizza Friday’s are staple and easy to kick off the weekend)
