The 2013-2014 school year is right around the corner. So it’s time for parents to start buying supplies and getting school gear (uniforms, book bags, pencil, paper, etc.) For those of you that have school aged children, you may want to attend the Back Pack Bonanza that’s being held at Da Remix this Saturday (July 13, 2013) on Broadway Drive in Hattiesburg, Ms. This weekend; they will be having a back to school rally. There will be refreshments, guest speakers and give away. They will be giving all school age children a back pack (book bag) filled with school supplies. The child must be present to get the supplies. The event is free to the public. Also, Da Remix will be having a sale on school uniforms. This is certainly an event that parents should attend. For more information, you can call Da Remix at 601-582-2323.

I’m trying to catch up on some blog post I should have posted during the event. Going forward, Wednesdays will be Welcome to Lumberton Wednesdays. I will post pictures of the staff of various businesses and organizations as they welcome people to Lumberton. The post will include a summary of their services (menus if applicable) and other points of interest that could interest people in giving Lumberton another look. I will start gathering photos and I will feature some areas I picked but if you would like a business or spot featured, you could call, text or email me your suggestion. I’m not sure how we will feature the clean up properties; I don’t want to feature them too close to Wednesday. Maybe we can feature dilapidated properties on what would be deemed as Messy Mondays. It’s still a work in progress but I will figure out something. Now, to catch up on some things that took place the other week.
