Champions for Children: Snack in a Backpack

The 11th annual Snack in a Backpack fundraiser will be held at Fightingtown Tavern in Blue Ridge. What began as a grassroots effort to curb childhood hunger has spawned into a community-wide movement that serves six schools, one group home, and even homeschooled students in need. Participants can expect live music by Double Play, a light buffet dinner, dessert, and an auction, all of which will be held from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. For tickets and sponsorships, e-mail [email protected]. snackinabackpack.org
