The First Day Festival is held each year the Sunday before school starts in Charleston County to celebrate the beginning of a new school year.  It brings children and families together to provide them with information on services and programs, free school supplies, and free food and beverages!

Come out again this year for the 5th Annual First Day Festival!

Sunday, August 19th, 2007
1pm to 4pm
Liberty Square, right outside the South Carolina Aquarium

And since you'll already be right there, why not visit the Aquarium, too?  In conjunction with the First Day Festival, the SC Aquarium is lowering their admission to only $1!  So you can load up on all those school necessities and see the entire Aquarium for only a buck.  What a deal!
