    TCC Eden Prairie, an authorized Verizon retailer, will be taking part in the national School Rocks Backpack Giveaway on Sunday, July 30.

    Starting at 1 p.m., while supplies last, local families may visit the retailer to pick up a backpack filled with pencils, paper, a pencil box, folders, a ruler, and glue. One backpack per child present will be given away on a first-come, first-served basis. Any leftover backpacks at the School Rocks Backpack Giveaway event will be donated to local schools of the store’s choice.
