We had a great day at Wiscasset Set for Success 2026! 🎒 Over 150 students and their families attended the event - picking up backpacks and school supplies, getting haircuts, seeing their teachers and getting ready to go back to school. 👧👦 So many groups and individuals helped make this day happen! We can't tag them all, but a big thanks goes out to Wiscasset Parks and Recreation for hosting us and to Wiscasset School Department.
Thanks to all the businesses, community groups, teachers and volunteers who supported this event and all the parents, grandparents and friends who stopped by with their students to make sure their kids had the supplies they needed. We are so lucky to have such a supportive community and a fantastic group of volunteers. 😍 We'll be packing up the extra supplies to get them to the schools. Enjoy the rest of the summer and have a great school year! ☺️🍎
