This annual tradition has become a great way to get the children and parents ready for the new school year, which, for some can be filled with anxiety and apprehension. With the assistance of the Freeport Chamber of Commerce, Georgica Green Ventures Tri-Us Electric, United Way, JOBCO, Tri-State Technologies and Rachel&#8217;s Waterside Grill, an afternoon of school preparation, food, music and face-painting was enjoyed by all. Thanks to all of our sponsors, especially the United Way for donating the backpacks and school supplies, and also to the Village of Freeport and Board of Education for their continued support.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1073.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1110\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1073-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1073-225x300.jpg 225w, http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1073.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1111\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1076.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1111\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1111\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1076-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1076-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1076-510x382.jpg 510w, http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1076.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1111\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kids waiting to get their faces painted<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1080.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1112\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1080-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1080-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1080-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1080.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1082.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1113\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1082-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1082-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1082-510x382.jpg 510w, http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_1082.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1114\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Resized_2019_Back_2_School_BBQ_Social_1.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1114\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1114\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Resized_2019_Back_2_School_BBQ_Social_1-300x288.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"288\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Resized_2019_Back_2_School_BBQ_Social_1-300x288.jpeg 300w, http:\/\/www.freeporthousingny.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Resized_2019_Back_2_School_BBQ_Social_1.jpeg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1114\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Executive Director John Hrvatin with Freeport Mayor Robert Kennedy, FHA Commissioner Steven Patrick, Board of Education member Vilma Lancaster, Trius Electric&#8217;s Thomas Dipolito and tenant families.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Thursday August 29, 2019, the Freeport Housing Authority hosted a &#8220;Back To School&#8221; workshop and BBQ at the basketball courts of the Moxey Rigby Apartment Complex.
