WEEKLY SNAPSHOT

August 6, 2025

HOW IS IT AUGUST ALREADY???

I know I’m not the only one feeling this way.

Next week it’s back to school, but this past week it was the BACK TO SCHOOL BASH! We are so proud of our last Leadership Class and their ongoing support of their project. Many turned up to work Saturday and gave out nearly 2000 backpacks and bags of food (along with hot dogs and many other items!)

We are almost ready to start a new year of Leadership Fairfield. Find all the information below and get signed up for the year here. You will not want to miss this opportunity to learn, lead and serve.

Have a great week!
