A Dillon church is hosting its second annual back to school bash.

LifePoint Church and its partners are giving away 1,000 backpacks to students in Dillon County. The bookbags are filled with school supplies.

The students can also receive free dental screenings, sports physicals, scoliosis and vision screenings.

Officials with the Dillon County Department of Health will also be on-site to screen kids for immunizations. If students need an immunization, the health department will be open on Saturday for them to be immunized.

Haircuts are also being offered for the children.

The Back to School Bash takes place Saturday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the Dillon Wellness Center.
