A community event is taking place in Midland this weekend, aimed at bringing families together. Jumpstart Midland is hosting its second annual Back to School Blast, a free event that will provide various resources for parents and children. The event will offer school supplies, food, games, and activities, as well as community resources.

Organizers say the goal is not only to prepare students with necessary supplies but also to encourage parental involvement in education. Further details about the event, including specific resources and activities, are available from Jumpstart Midland. The organization is working to support local families and help ensure students' success in the upcoming year.
