Southside Family Night Benefits Backpack Buddies Program
April 23, 2018
Southside Elementary students recently celebrated science, literacy, art, and music to culminate their One School, One Book reading of "The Lemonade War."
As part of the fun-filled family night, the Southside Media Center and K-Kids teamed up to host a lemonade taste testing contest. Families had the opportunity to sample five varieties of lemonade. Participants could donate 25 cents or a non-perishable pantry item to vote for their favorite lemonade flavor.
All proceeds and collected items benefited Southside's Backpack Buddies program. Forty-two pantry items were collected and $280.64 was donated to help students and families in need.
Thank you to everyone who donated and participated! What a great family night at Southside Elementary!
