Another congregation, Journey Church, 5017 37th St. E., Bradenton, also will be giving away some backpacks.

Backpacks filled with school supplies will be given to the first 150 school-aged children (one per child). Also planned: free immunizations, miniwater park with games and giveaways, rock climbing wall, food for sale, as well as free doughnuts, water, popcorn, and cotton candy.
