Attention Bloomington families and newcomers alike, mark your calendars for the Learning LinkUp event set for Saturday, August 23, from noon to 3 p.m. The resource fair is hosting at Valley View Elementary School Playfields and promises a mix of information, fun, and community support.
According to a recent announcement on the City of Bloomington's website, the fair will feature a variety of booths from local schools, Normandale Community College, and city departments. Attractions like food trucks, lawn games, and face painting are in the lineup to keep every member of the family entertained. Plus, don't miss out on stage shows, school mascots roaming about, the always popular Bookmobile, and a visit from the Mobile Health Hub.
In a statement obtained by the City of Bloomington, Amanda Crombie, the community outreach and engagement coordinator, underscored the event’s intention: “When we connect families to the resources they need, we’re strengthening our entire community.” Learning LinkUp serves as a gateway for community building and resource sharing.
The fair invites both long-standing residents and those new to the area, emphasizing Bloomington's warm reception for all. It's the perfect opportunity to discover support and resources as families gear up for the coming school year. Additional details on the Learning LinkUp can be found on their event page, set to make the transition into educational routines that much smoother for Bloomington's families.
