Back to School Fair a success

The Lake Chelan Valley Back to School Fair was a success. More than 400 students received free backpacks and school supplies just in time for classes which officially begin in Chelan on August 28. Above Paul and Tammy Hunter handed out backpacks and school supplies to elementary students during the event. Due to hazardous air quality, the event which was going to initially take place at Morgen Owings Elementary School on Sunday, August 19 from 4-6 p.m. got moved indoors to the Chelan Community Gym. The fair was sponsored in part by Lake Chelan Community Hospital and Clinic.
