The 2018-19 Back-to-School Bash, sponsored the D124 Foundation and Evergreen Bank, will be held from 5:30-7 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 17, at Central Middle School, rain or shine.

The upcoming Bash will be the first to be held on the Friday after school begins, instead of the Friday before. The hope is that this change will cause fewer conflicts with our families’ end-of-summer plans.

So far, the Evergreen Park Fire Department, Evergreen Park Police Department, Evergreen Park Public Library, Mongan Dance Academy, Woori Taekwondo, Girl Scout Troop 65101, and the Evergreen Park Community High School Band have all confirmed their participation in this event. There will also be a DJ, raffles, and great food for sale.
