Local stores are making school supplies available now, as Weyburn students will be returning to school in just a little over a month.
While it can be a fun time for kids to join their parents to pick out their school supplies for the year, for some parents, back-to-school shopping presents more financial challenges.
Wednesday, July 30th, is the last day to apply for the Weyburn Salvation Army's Back to School program.
Parents can apply for the program by stopping in between 1 and 5 p.m. at the Fourth Street office and providing the name, grade, and school details for each child.
Each year, local business owner Bree Patterson partners with the Weyburn Salvation Army to ensure school kids in Weyburn have what they need for a successful school year.
