North Iowa celebrates back to school time

     The annual Back to School Bash at North Iowa Community School drew a large crowd of families last Thursday evening, August 20 at the school playground in Buffalo Center. There was free food, games and prizes as families and school staff celebrated the start of the coming school year.
