The generosity of local business owners will be in full bloomnext month, as boys and girls from Clearing, Garfield Ridge and other areas will be treated to one last summer party before children go back to school.
Several thousand children, their parents and grandparents gathered are expected in the west parking lot at Kennedy High School, 56th and Narragansett, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 14.
The first 2,500 children in attendance will receive new book bags. All children will be treated to free food and beverages, music, a bouncy house, visits by costumed characters and more.
The back-to-school celebration—launched in 2018--is the brainchild of Geno Randazzo, owner of All Exterior Contractors. Signing on as co-sponsors are the Garfield Ridge Chamber of Commerce, Midway Storage, First Rate Realty, Mike Riordan State Farm Agency, Amigo Pest Control and several other local businesses.
New bookbags, big smiles. |

In both 2018 and 2021 it was named a Garfield Ridge Chamber of Commerce Business of the Month and has built a reputation for supporting local veterans posts, civic and neighborhood watch groups, Scout troops, Little Leagues, churches, schools, senior citizen groups and more.
