Back-to-school shopping season is fully upon us, and to help ease the burden of needy families in the community, Clawson Police are fundraising for backpacks and school supplies.
The fifth annual Stuff-a-Backpack Drive is scheduled Aug. 25 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Clawson Farmers Market (in Clawson City Park, located at Elmwood and Custer).
