Swap, Share or Donate Back to School Gear on Patch

Extra-curricular activities are a great way to help kids find out what they like and where they shine. But the equipment, uniform requirements and other supplies children need to try out a new activity are not cheap. Plus, it can be time consuming to shop for everything on those lists.

So instead of visiting every dance wear store in Westchester to find a surprisingly elusive size small sleeveless leotard, or coughing up $40 for a new pair of cleats that will last one season, see if your neighbors on New Rochelle Patch have something to share, swap or donate. 

Just post what you need or what you want to get rid of in the comments and maybe you'll find someone who can help.

Good luck with back to school shopping.

Remember, please use Patch announcements to let us know how your kids are doing in their extra-curricular activities.
