#FeatureFriday: The Twin Valley Elementary Center's PIE hosted a fantastic Back2School Bingo for Books event on September 20th, bringing the community together for an evening of fun and reading!
Families enjoyed playing Bingo for a chance to win a new book, all while savoring delicious food from the Windy Hill Food Truck. The playground buzzed with excitement as families gathered for dinner and snacks.
At the end of the night, everyone had the opportunity to take home a new book by donation. It was a wonderful way to kick off the school year and promote a love of reading!
