Pier Park announced that the center will host a Back to School Supply Drive July 31 through August 9, 2021 to coincide with Florida’s Back-to-School Sales Tax Holiday. The drive will benefit the Boys & Girls Clubs of Bay County.
WHAT: Residents and visitors can drop off their school supply donations at the Mall Management Office, Dillard’s, Pink Narcissus, Tervis or Dollar Tree. Donations can also be dropped off at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Bay County facility located at 16200 Back Beach Road, Panama City Beach, Florida 32413. In addition to helping a good cause, donors will enjoy significant savings when shopping for supplies thanks to Florida’s Tax Cut Package. According to FLGov.com, Floridians will pay no sales tax for school supplies valued at $15 or less per item, no sales tax on the first $1,000 of personal computers plus related accessories and no sales tax on certain clothing valued at $60 or less per item.
Pier Park is also offering donors a chance to win a $500 prize package. After writing their full name, phone number and email address on the back, donors must turn in the receipt for their donated supplies to the Mall Management Office by Friday, August 13, 2021. The receipt, which must show a minimum $50 purchase, will serve as the entry into the center’s random prize drawing.
