Kick off the school year with food, fun, and friends! 🎶 DJ James will keep the energy up while kids test their strength breaking boards with American Martial Arts. Grab a bite from Bucktown Grille, cool off with Maggie Moo’s or Lani Ice, and shop local with Off Grid Goodies.

Kids can enjoy carnival games, a hula hoop contest, and (drumroll, please…) the chance to pie Dr. Detweiler…and maybe even some of your favorite teachers…in the face! 🥧😂

Plus: grab your WVES spirit wear and sign up for your PTA membership in person!

Don’t miss this much anticipated annual night of Wildcat fun for the whole family! 🐾
