Back to School Events On August 10, the City of Fort Worth hosted a Back to School Roundup at Will Rogers Coliseum and on August 12 the Andrew “Doc” Session Community Center hosted a Back to School Bash. Families were able to pick up backpacks full of school supplies, receive free haircuts, and take care of other back-to-school basics. On August 24, a Back to School Block Party was held at Cavile Place. Mayor Betsy Price and Chief Joel F. Fitzgerald attended the event where children were able to ride bikes on a training course and learn about bike safety.

COPS for Kids Benefit In March, Panther Island Pavilion hosted the Chisholm Trail Music Festival benefiting Cops for Kids. The two day event kicked off on a Friday night with a benefit concert and continued the following Saturday with more music and a barbecue cook-off. Cops for Kids demonstrates local law enforcement’s continued concern for the children in our community by encouraging them to have stronger family relationships, choosing better friends, and to continue their education.
