    Hard to believe kids will be heading back to school soon. Summer is still here but the start of the school year is starting to stress some parents. The back to school list is long with supplies, clothes, footwear and more. It can be a hard time of the year for many parents finding it tough to keep up with inflation. This year Bayfm is a proud sponsor of the “Stuff the Backpack” event in partnership with Staples and the Vine Place Community centre. Come see the gang Lenny, Carol and Sarah are on the parking lot until 2pm today. All money raised and school supplies will go to Vine Place Community Centre to help low income families.
