Soon school bells will ring and so will early morning alarm clocks.  Even though the thermometer says its still summer, the calendar brings Back to School time. Denim is a school fashion staple, so our denim care tricks are a must read to keep you at the front of the class.  For designer denim, you can always trust Westbank to keep them looking their best so we've included a

5 for 4 pant Savings Certificate with this newsletter.

   Also, remember to tell your friends about our Project School Bell Program.  Westbank begins our sixth year offering cash to K-12 schools.  In just five years, we've donated more than $80,000 to more than 100 area schools. We're proud to have implemented this year-round campaign that donates 3% of pre-tax purchases to the school of your choice.  Our website offers a flyer to hand out at Back to School nights.  Check out your school's total donations here .  We enjoy being a part of this great city and thank you for supporting businesses who give back to the community.

Back To School Clothing Tips 

Out With the Old 

Help your child go through old clothing.  Donate outgrown items.

Make a List

Plan to buy only what you need: jeans, shirts, socks, shoes, underwear. Chances are what's in now won't be after the first two weeks in school.

Be Aware of School Dress Codes

Make note of skirt or short lengths, spaghetti straps and baggy pants rules.

On Your Marks, Get Set, Shop

Focus on good quality items that will withstand multiple washings.  Make sure items will mix and match with what they already have.

Organize

Have your child plan outfits the night before to avoid morning meltdowns.  Make sure small children have mastered zippers, snaps and buttons before the bell rings the first day.
