Mayor's back to school bash today

Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett is hosting a "back to school bash" today, from 3 to 6 p.m. at the Knoxville Expo Center (5441 Clinton Highway). 

The annual event is an opportunity for students and their families to get free school supplies and enjoy activities, free food, special programs, vendors and more, according to Michael Grider, the one local PR flack who isn't an obstructionist and doesn't have any plans to leave.

Heh.

According to the "Big Sexy" one, roughly 4,000 people attended last year’s event, so "Mayor Burchett is making the 2013 bash even bigger, with more space and more vendors offering school supplies."
