The 26th annual Marshall County Back 2 School Fun Fair will be held on Wednesday, July 29, 2026, at the John Marshall Field House, in Moundsville, from 9:00 am until noon.
The “Fun Fair” is open to any Marshall County Schools student, Pre-K through 12th grade, who is accompanied by an adult. Each child will receive a free backpack filled with school supplies such as pencils, pens, notebooks and more.
Several other free services will be offered during the “Fun Fair.” Nearly 50 different agencies will be on hand to assist students and parents. Milk and doughnuts will be served for breakfast.
Marshall County Schools employee Susie Baker started the “Fun Fair” in 2000 and since then has become a popular way for Marshall County students to celebrate their return to school. Last year more than 1,900 families participated in the event.
There are no income guidelines to participate in the “Fun Fair.”
