19th Annual Back To School Event at M&M Marketplace

But it was only some serious business at the Back To School Event. In a lighthearted twist, Sgt. Villaraldo from the Hillsboro Police Department volunteered to get dunked in the dunk tank, as well as Coach Marcos from Hillsboro Futsal, much to the amusement of the attendees. An unexpected fun element with a goat petting zoo proved to be a huge hit with the kids. These moments of laughter and play make community events like this truly memorable.

The event also featured a lineup of fantastic performances that captivated the audience. From the Mulan Drum Team and the Dragonfly Yo-yo Team to the fun antics of BJ the Clown and the cultural richness of Huehca Omeyocan, there was something for everyone to enjoy. These talented performers added an extra layer of vibrancy to the event, showcasing the diversity and talent within the Hillsboro community.

A heartfelt thank you goes to the dedicated volunteers who worked tirelessly to make this year’s event possible. Their commitment to distributing backpacks, setting up, and cleaning up ensured the event’s smooth operation. It demonstrated the power of community when individuals come together with a shared purpose.
