Students in pre-K through 12th grade residing in Montezuma and Dolores counties must register today to be guaranteed school supplies at the Backpack and School Supply Giveaway Saturday in Cortez.<\/p>\n

The giveaway, hosted by the Montelores Early Childhood Council, is 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, Aug. 3 at Trinity Lutheran Church, 208 N. Dolores Road.<\/p>\n

The Childhood Council is hosting the giveaway in conjunction with Osprey Packs, Onward!, the LOR Foundation and The Salvation Army to help prepare students for the new school year.<\/p>\n

Preregistration closes today, and organizers encourage parents to preregister their student to get a backpack and supplies. Without preregistration, supplies are available on first-come, first-served basis<\/p>\n

While preregistration does not guarantee that the student will receive an Osprey pack, it does guarantee a backpack and supplies.<\/p>\n

Preregistered items must be picked up 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, unless other arrangements are made. If a preregistered pack is not picked up by 2 p.m. Saturday, it will be given to someone else.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will provide as many supplies as we can to those who do not preregister, first-come, first-served until supplies run out,\u201d organizers said.<\/p>\n

The link to preregister can be found online<\/a> at bit.ly\/EECsupplies<\/a>.<\/p>\n
