Organizers are gearing up for the annual Back to School Bash for Trion and Chattooga students, with plans to make this year’s event even bigger for local families.

The event is scheduled for July 16, 2026, from 4 until 6 p.m. and will include music, free back-to-school haircuts, shaved ice treats, community resources, and school-year support for students.

Organizers are currently accepting school supply donations, monetary donations, and community partners or vendors who would like to set up and share resources with families.

Anyone interested in donating or getting involved can contact Maisha Ludy at 706-388-9849 or email maishaludy@gmail.com.

Organizers say the goal is to bring the community together to support students and families as they prepare for a new school year.
