Operation Backpack

Get your kids ready for school! Operation Backpack provides FREE school supplies for students of military families! Saturday, August 1 from 10am – noon at the Offutt Parade Ground. Due to COVID-19 precautions, the event will be DRIVE THRU & PICK UP. Families will drive slowly around the Parade Ground. We’ll have amazing displays, enthusiastic volunteers, sponsors, and surprises to start the school year off right. At the end of the drive, children will receive a FREE backpack filled with school supplies & extras! Tickets are NOT required this year. Open to kids in grades K – 8 of Military & DoD card holder families. Limit ONE backpack per student while supplies last. Children must be in the car to receive their backpack. Call 402-232-4231 for more information.
