POLSON — The Day of Hope, Back to School Health Fair is back and coming to Downtown Polson on Saturday, Aug. 26, from 9 a.m.-2 p.m., located between First St. W and Third Ave. W in front of the Cove in downtown. This free community event is brought to you by our local faith community, multiple nonprofits, and various business sponsors across the Polson and Mission Valley areas.
The Day of Hope will feature a variety of local nonprofit organizations, vendors, health service agencies, and educational services geared towards helping the families of Lake County prepare for the Back-to-School season. The Day of Hope will include free health screenings from organizations like Tribal Health, Providence St. Joseph, car seat safety checks by the Lake County Health Department. Giveaways like free school supplies, backpacks, and more will be available, while supplies last, from Tribal Education and other local non-profits of the Mission Valley. Last, but not least, Day of Hope will include various experiences for the kids of our community to explore fire trucks, police cars, meet local VIPS, and more. The Day of Hope will also have some of the valley’s best food trucks on hand and will have food available for purchase.
The Day of Hope was established in the Summer of 2019 by faith-based group of local likeminded individuals looking to bring Hope to the Valley. The Day of Hope has and will continue to provide thousands of people within Lake County and surrounding areas with the supplies necessary to begin school with the proper tools necessary and to prevent less stress for parents, students, and teachers. The mission of the Day of Hope is to meet the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of the Mission Valley community through the love of Jesus Christ.
