City students can get free back-to-school haircuts and pick up free school supplies Monday, Aug. 23, at the Savin Rock Conference Center, 6 Rock St.

 

Hairdressers from North Haven Academy, a Paul Mitchell partner school, will cut children’s hair from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on that date.
 
The haircuts are part of the school supplies drive organized by the city, Seacrest Retirement Center and Apple Rehab. EReclaim LLC, an authorized recycler and collector of universal waste electronic devices, will raffle off a refurbished computer. Children can also pick up school supplies that have been donated. Participants must show proof of residence.
 
Organizers are calling on businesses and residents to donate supplies for the event. A drive to collect supplies runs through Friday, Aug. 20.
 
Items include backpacks, pens, pencils, small pencil sharpeners, colored pencils, crayons, markers, binders, tissues, 12-inch rulers, glue sticks, blunt-end scissors, notebook paper, composition books, folders with pockets, zippered pencil bags and erasers.

 

Supplies can be dropped off at the mayor’s office in City Hall, 355 Main St.; Seacrest, 588 Ocean Ave.; or Apple Rehab, 308 Savin Ave. For more details, call the mayor’s office at 203-937-3510.
