Crystal Mall Hosts Interactive, Back-to-School Activities for Young Students and Parents

Crystal Mall is holding a special celebration to help young students and parents 'make the grade' even before the school year beings. Families are invited to score an "A+" in preparedness and entertainment with the annual Back-to-School event on Sunday, August 18th from 12:00pm to 2:00pm, just in time to kick off Connecticut's Tax-Free Week.

This Back-to-School event will feature a variety of interactive activities for children and valuable offers for adults, all designed to make transitioning into academic routines a little easier. Before hitting the books, families can explore the latest clothing, accessory and toy trends from retailers at the mall-wide sidewalk sale. Attendees will also catch the hottest fashion fads during the freeze modeling demonstrations. Plus, those attending will have the chance to win prizes and giveaways and tackle their back to school shopping lists with exclusive retailer coupons and the special "Shop for Swag" Promotion. "Shop for Swag" allows shoppers to bring in receipts totaling $100 or more to Crystal Mall's management office and receive a swag bag full of goodies in return. Receipts must be dated between August 16, 2013 and August 18, 2013.
